»»—Story Start—««

Naruto's eyes fluttered open before they snapped apart and stared around. On instinct, he reached up and grasped something on his face and roughly yanked it off.

He looked forward as his mouth flooded up with fluid and he raised a hand without a second thought, a red Ki ball shot clean from his hand, blowing up what was in front of him and eviscerating an alien that so happened to try and calm him down without him noticing. The boy walked through the rubble as the water emptied from the giant hole in the machine, his face contorting into one of a perplexed frown. He looked at the burnt and dead body in front of him and looked back at the hand that did it.

He stared at his right hand and gripped it and unclasped it, trying to ease the shakiness that he felt. 'That was a lot easier than I thought it would be… maybe it was because of mother's training.' He thought. He then glanced up when his heightened senses overheard at least a dozen or so sets of rushing footsteps rushing towards him.

He narrowed his eyes forward before someone caught his eye the second one of the aliens came into the room. 'They're wearing Frieza's armor! If that's true, then I'm not on Krypton anymore, and I'm on Frieza's ship!' He thought with widened eyes before gritted his teeth, feeling rage rise within him. 'Then that means Frieza's killed dad and mom!' He thought. 'Then that also means he's destroyed Krypton as well!'

Just then, an impulsive voice cut through his ears as he snapped back to reality. Thirty or so feet in front of him was a five foot tall purple-skinned alien with green blotches running along his skin. Around his arm, was a weird looking device that had a barrel that glowed menacingly.

"Stop! Do not move, by the command of Lord Emperor Frieza-sama!" He yelled as he readied his weapon, as did every single man behind him.

Naruto hardly spared them a glance, "You said by command of Frieza? Correct?" He challenged, his face not betraying more emotion than his eyes that were narrowed in anger.

"That's correct, and by his order, you are to surrender and come peacefully!" The same alien shouted.

He gazed at the alien for a few long seconds before he gradually nodded, not seeing what he could gain from arguing any further. Especially if he was on Frieza's ship or planet.

By that sign, six guards gradually, yet anxiously went up to him and went around him and cupped his hands with cuffs that had blue energy running through them. Privately, Naruto's gritted his teeth in pain as he felt his power being restricted.

With that, one grabbed onto his collar and roughly pushed him forward. "Hey watch it!" Naruto shouted before he was hastily blasted in the back by a red energy laser. In his regular state, it wouldn't have even tickled him. But now, where his power level was that of a human's, it was able to hurt and burn, causing his skin to singe an angry red as it burned a small part of his back.

That pain wasn't that intense, but it was there and just feeling powerless hurt his pride more than any wound would at the time. But he was smart and kept his mouth shut. His father trained him to be observant and manipulative. He was in a life and death situation where the circumstance could quickly turn out to be out of his judgment and power. He had to learn where he was first, once he did, he had to learn why Frieza took him and what he was even doing alive.

After that, he could butt some heads. But he had to be sure of some things before he could let that happen.

Snapping out of his preemptive thoughts and plans, he stared onward at a large, retractive metal door.

The leader moved up once more. "Frieza-sama, it is I, Appzu and I have the simian prisoner, and I request entry," he spoke professionally with a small trace of fear lining his tone.

"You want to suck his dick too?" Naruto snarked before he was promptly in the back in the head by something he barely felt. But it did feel like he was hit with something of metal origins.

Not even a moment later, a calm, cool, collected voice responded back, "Yes, yes. You may enter." He sounded out.

A moment later, the same leader placed his hand on the door, and the sizeable wall-like door retreated back and opened. He then led the escort team through.

"Frieza-sama, would you like us to leave the prisoner here and leave or-," he was able to finish as a ray of Ki passed through his head, and fell onto the floor in a dead faint. Completely unresponsive and dead.

Naruto observed with slightly parted eyes. Killing for no reason? That wasn't exactly new to Naruto but seeing it and hearing about it was two different things. He now knew that much. Gulping down his anxiety and his face set in an apathetic glare that his mother had taught him a few days back. While he had been training to regulate his emotions, he was still nowhere near his mother's ability to do so.

Mainly since he was so in tune to one single emotion that he could never hold back.

Anger.

Primal anger.

It came so easy, and he loved when he actually did get angry, his power increased drastically when he did. However, the main reason why his mother was training him to control his emotions, was because if he got angry enough, his power would rise too high and he would lose control. His parents, and by extension him, learned that the hard way when he was nine-years of age. He nearly had destroyed Krypton by releasing a blast aimed downward onto the ground. Luckily, his father was able to subdue him before he could launch it.

Naruto stared ahead while facing the man, the monster that single-handedly killed off his entire two races. One two years before he was born and the other one that felt like moments ago. While he couldn't see him, he could make out the chair that hovering in the center of the room and he could also see the snake-like, sharp harpooned tip tail that coiled around on the ground every so often.

His eyebrows jerked at the mere stench of him, and he already felt his anger rise, but he held it down, ignoring the feeling of rage and hate and focused on what was truly important.

"Leave us be, Zarbon… Dadoria. I would like to have a private talk with our newcomer." He spoke, his tone laced with an arrogance that was undismissable.

Following his order, the two both led themselves out of the room. However, before they could leave, they could hear Frieza speak as well. "You lot as well," he ordered, his tone frigid as the rest of the escort team scrambled out, nearly shitting themselves as they ran. Naruto let out a snort from their cowardice but said nothing.

Naruto looked ahead, his eyes narrowed and focused. "So, what is your name, Saiyan?" Naruto closed his eyes further before he swallowed his anger with some trouble.

"It's Naruto," he told her shortly, getting a hum of acknowledgment from the tyrant.

"I see, I see." He muttered. "So, where are your parents?" He questioned, his tone not betraying a single emotion. "As, with a battle power as high as yours and at your age, I highly doubt you were sent away as a baby."

Nodding slightly, he played his cards carefully. "My parents had escaped Planet Vegeta before its explosion. They landed on a remote planet that had life on it and had me two years later," he explained, not lying, but not telling the truth either.

"You see, young Naruto." He started, and a small shiver went down his spine as he felt a wave of fear wash over him which was combined with anger. "I hate when people lie to me." He said before he smirked. "Planet Vegeta was destroyed sixteen years ago. You are twelve years old if I had to guess and you said you were born two years after its destruction. Which, leaves two years unaccounted for." He explained, causing Naruto's eyes to widen before they settled down.

'What?! Planet Vegeta was destroyed fourteen years ago! Not sixteen!' He thought before he steeled his emotions. "My apologies for trying to fool you… Lord Frieza," he spoke, holding back a grimace of disgust as he spoke that singular word.

"Ah, it's quite alright lad. In fact, it was to be expected. But I know you're wondering, 'Why am I here?' Correct?" Frieza challenged in a knowing tone.

Naruto bowed shortly.

"You see, young Naruto, I found you in a damaged ship, a damaged Saiyan pod to be exact, and you had been in critical condition and were nearly dead from being in the vacuum of space. One of your lungs had collapsed, and most of your tissue on your arm had been ripped off down to the bone," he revealed, getting a shocked look from the boy.

"But I'm assuming that you didn't save me out of the goodness of your heart?" Naruto inquired, already apprehending his situation. He had a feeling what Frieza was about to pull, but he didn't know for sure. So, he had to play it safe.

His question earned a dicey smile from the ruler before he nodded somewhat. "Indeed, in exchange for me saving your life, I want you to serve me and my army. With your astounding battle power and your young age, you are sure to have magnificent potential. With my help, you can learn how to control your power, and you will become one of my top soldiers. You'll be treated like royalty, you'll have anything you could ever dream of." He continued, earning a raised eyebrow from the twelve-year-old.

"And if I don't accept?" He made sure his question didn't sound anxious. Merely careful.

A low chortle reverberated through the room, "I will be sure that the vacuum of space finishes its job," he clarified, getting an internal sneer from the boy.

"Fine," he spat. "I'll work for you," he said, privately though, he was burning with anger.

"Delightful!" Frieza exclaimed with a cheery smile. "Now, I'll have Zarbon get you some armor that is too you're liking." He told him. On cue, the doors opened, and Zarbon came sauntering in with his smirk still in place.

"Let's go, Saiyan." Zarbon commanded, no venom in his tone. Only smugness and arrogance.

"Tch," Naruto snorted before he turned around. He followed Zarbon out not sparing Frieza one last glance. However, he suspended in his tracks once heard the tyrant speak.

He heard Frieza hum before he spoke. "I can't wait for us to get properly acquainted, Naruto-kun."

The boy felt shiver leave his spine, 'Pedo,' he shivered at hearing the suffix that was added to his name before he followed Zarbon.

»»—Line Break—««

Naruto entered a large room, following Zarbon. He looked around, impressed. "This room is a pocket dimension that holds our storage for everyone to use. It's not endless, but it is around ten times larger than this ship, which is larger than a small moon." He told Naruto.

"Go ahead and pick out what you want. I'll have copies with whatever you chose within a days' time," Zarbon explained before he swung around and escorted himself away.

Naruto stepped onward, looking at all the universally sized armor that expanded and decreased in size. He skimmed through his selection. He first was tempted by an all-black selection of amour, but he shrugged it off as it was too bland for his liking. He then was tempted to take one that had a fair share of white and gold, but shrugged it as well, saying while it was cool, but it didn't tickle his fancy too much, at least not know.

However, one selection of armor did catch his attention. He swiftly slid it on with ease, already knowing how to put on Saiyan armor as he had worn Saiyan armor a bunch of times before, his father made sure of that. So, it wasn't really new to him.

After finishing, Naruto stood in front of a full body mirror that was nearby and nodded in delight. His outfit consisted of a black skintight undershirt as well a very short black skintight pair of underwear. Over that, was a one piece of Saiyan armor. It had four pieces of loose hanging purple oval shaped armor slivers that draped around his hip and over his crotch. His armor had shoulder pads, gauntlets around his wrists and slightly large boots that were purple in color. His chest piece was bright, metallic green, but when he was in a dark environment, it appeared dark purple. (1), Around his waist, was his fury tail that hung tightly.

He walked outside and saw Zarbon leaning against the wall with his eyes shut. But, when he heard Naruto open the door, he opened them and nodded. "Finally," he sighed, getting a minor twitch from Naruto.

"Let's go, I'll get you to your living quarters," he told him, not meeting his gaze as he went on ahead, not even advising the boy to follow.

Naruto was a little angry at his rude behavior, but he shrugged it off, deciding that he had worse things happening around him at the moment.

After leading him down the hall for a few minutes in quietness, Zarbon made an erupt turn and laid his hand on a door, and it opened mechanically. It slid open, and Zarbon moved out of the way. "There's your room, there's a clock on the wall. Be ready by Six A.M. Lord Frieza has commanded to have your abilities tested." He told Naruto before he walked away.

Naruto's gaze followed his retreating form with a small glare before went inside his room and slowly sat down on the bed. His shoulders drooped slightly as he felt the tension leave him.

Slowly, tears started running down his cheeks. His arms shook slightly as the tears dribbled down his chin and onto his limp hands. Abruptly, he balled them up into fists, and they started trembling.

'Why?!' He thought as he trembled. 'You get to die heroes, and I have to serve under the same person who single-handedly destroyed and killed off our entire races! You two get be in peace and now… and… and now?!' He thought angerly as tears of frustration fell off his chin.

"But you can make a new race. A race far stronger than both the Kryptonians and the Saiyans combined."

"I always thought by avoiding sentimental feelings with you, would make you into a tougher man. And now, I believe that I was right,"

"Because, even though you are a mere child, you are still twice the man I could ever hope to be. Don't forget that and no matter what you do, or what choose to do to in life. Your mother and I will always be proud of you!"

Just thinking about his words, caused him to tremble. Whether that would be out of rage, regret, pain or if it was all of them rolled into one. 'Father… mother… if you truly meant what you said… then can you truly accept what I'll be forced to become?' He thought, knowing what he was already becoming.

He'd killed someone, someone who wasn't even a threat to him, just because his instincts told him so. Just because he was defenseless. The mere idea of it, had him gritting his teeth.

This was all wrong! No one ever taught him to be like that. His mother, Nada knew that there would be a time where he had to kill, and she told him it was alright if it was in battle and if he never enjoyed it. That was the abridged version of an over hundred-word speech that she told him.

"Roughh," he snarled before he slammed his fist into the wall, forming a large hole in which his fist was lodged into. He roughly ripped out his fist and let his hand fall against his face. 'I feel… so lost and unsure. All I've ever known was the stuff that you two have taught me.' He thought grimly and confusedly.

He stood up and paced throughout with his palms resting on his head. He paused abruptly before he took a long breath. 'I can't worry about this now… I can think about this shit later. I need some sleep, I'm exhausted.' He thought, snapping out of his funk as he stripped himself of his armor.

He stepped over to the drawer and picked out what looked like pajama shorts before he slipped into bed. He shut his eyes without covering up and fell asleep soon after.

»»—Line Break—««

Naruto's eyes snapped open when he heard a knock ring off his door, and his body lifted upward, all traces of sleep gone as he narrowed his eyes. However, he halted when he heard Zarbon's voice emanating from the other end of the door.

"Let's go, boy! You have fifteen minutes until you're supposed to be there!" He yelled loudly, capturing Naruto's attention.

The boy gently slid off the bed and landed on his toes, "Yeah, yeah, calm your tits pretty boy," the Saiyan snapped with a twitching eyebrow.

From the other side of the door, Zarbon's eyebrow jerked before he scoffed and sank against the wall. He really did not know why his master was interested in a Saiyan like him. He couldn't have been that powerful, but he'd see when the boy's strength would be assessed. Then he'd give his judgment. Till then, he'd at least try to be neutral.

Key word: Tried.

A few moments later, the door slid open and revealed Naruto stepping out with his armor on, and he pushed on some skintight, fingerless black gloves as he walked while he had his gauntlets tucked underneath his armpits. He looked up after slipping it on, "You ready?" Zarbon questioned gruffly.

Naruto's answer came in the form of a stiff nod, and Zarbon nodded back and started walking away with Naruto in tow.

They walked in silence as they made their way through multiple doorways and hallways, and by then, Naruto had fully put his gauntlets on and was just walking beside bodyguard.

They entered a large quadrangular shaped room that was filled with other aliens. However, there was what looked like a circular coliseum-esk field in the center of the room that only had Frieza occupying the space while having his hands clenched behind his back.

Naruto strolled through the masses of people with a small glare on his face. However, one alien purposely bumped into him but missed Zarbon completely, and Naruto immediately turned to glare at the one who bumped into him.

Once he turned, he saw a giant, bulky, purple-skinned alien with a human-shaped, bald head. He wore the usual Frieza Force armor. He also had blue eyes and black painted nails along with large hands and feet.

"Watch who your bumping into, Saiyan." The alien growled, trying to get a rise out of the boy. Naruto just raised his eyebrow and smirked at him.

"Typical weaklings," the boy scoffed and walked away, leaving him to his lonesome while his friends all laughed at the guy from being showed up by a 'little monkey.'

As he walked, his expression morphed into a slate of political coldness and he steeled his emotions. Once they got near the center, Zarbon pulled him to the side.

"Get inside, I will keep watch of the perimeter as per his majesty's order," Zarbon ordered, getting a firm nod from the boy as he effortlessly vaulted over the four-foot tall gate and softly landed on the ground.

He stood straight, completely composed as he looked across over to the other side of the wall before he gradually turned his attention to Frieza as he sat in his hover car. Turning, Naruto made his way over with his arms folded.

"How are we going to do this evaluation?" He questioned in a cold tone, drawing a smirk from the emperor.

All the encompassing soldiers filed into their seats, most watching as they were curious who was getting evaluated. Even the more level headed, and smarter members wondered how strong he was.

He looked around before he nodded, "An unnatural see-through, intangible barrier surrounding a rebuildable chamber. Most likely controlled by a third-party." He transcribed, receiving a concise look of surprise from Frieza. "Not bad. This has to be level-nine technology (2). Not including what you had others do to possibly modify it," he proceeded, earning Frieza's attention.

"I see you know of technology a fair amount," Frieza noted in return.

He glanced at him and narrowed his eyes ever so slightly before he nodded slightly. "My mother taught me somethings," he told him vaguely in a dull tone.

"I see," he murmured before he smiled. "Well, no matter what, that is an impressive set of knowledge set to have. You have my applause." He nodded and clapped mockingly as he spoke with a condescending tone. "But, enough about that. I think it's time we begin."

Naruto did nothing, he just stared forward. Yet, if Frieza was offended by it, he did an excellent job at hiding it.

"Bring in Kefla, she will pose a good challenge for his boy!" Frieza barked and immediately, shuffling was heard and out came a humanoid figure that leaped over the bounds of the wall and landed softly, nearly in the same manner as Naruto did it before.

Naruto looked in the corner of his eye and narrowed it slightly. Standing there, was a female, human-looking teenager. She was about 5 foot 3 inches in height, she had a slender, yet busty build. She had spiky, black hair with a few bands hanging in front of her face while the rest of her was tied into a ponytail (3), a slightly tan skin complexion. Her breasts were large, much bigger than most her age, being DD-cups, a thinly muscled, toned stomach and slightly thick thighs and slender legs. She had dark coal, pupiless black eyes. She wore a dark red long sleeve strong, spandex top that clung to her breasts, doing nothing to hide their size. She also wore a pair of matching spandex pants as well as a pair of golden boots and thin golden bracelets on her dainty wrists. Around her neck, rested a golden colored necklace that had a few gems in it.

She stared across at before something fury uncoiled from her waist and swished around behind her.

Naruto's eyes widened a fair amount as he stared at her in shock. Seeing his reaction, the teen named Kefla smirked cockily and took a step forward.

"Oh? Speechless by my beauty huh? Yeah, I do get that reaction quite a lot around here," she muttered with her grin never leaving her lips.

Naruto snapped out of his shock they settled back to their calm, lazy half-idled laze. "So, you or your parents survived Planet Vegeta's explosion, huh?" He questioned.

She stared right into in his coal black iris before she smiled. "Yeah, I was sent away by our illustrious King," she spoke 'illustrious' sarcastically before she continued. "Since I was born with a power level of 50, he sent me away to a distant planet. But this was mere minutes before its destruction. My parents had caught up to me soon enough, and we traveled to a remote planet. Then, after raising and teaching me for ten years, they died in battle protecting me. Six years later, and here we are."

Naruto gave a nod, "While it's nice to know that there is another Saiyan out there… though, I want to see if you are truly just another weakling like our former brethren."

She smirked before she settled down into a fighting stance, "You read my mind," she purred throatily.

Naruto gave a small smirk before skidded into a stance as well. He bent his legs a fair amount, lowering his bending his knees moderately. He had his right hand balled up into a fist that aimed to the side, and his left hand was brought up to the left of his face and was curled up into a claw (4).

The referee looked over to the airborne Frieza, and the warlord just nodded. He nodded back before he shakily raised his hand that had a small flag.

"Y-You may-," he was interrupted before the everyone heard the ground shatter underneath them. The ref scrambled to stand and not fall, but he faltered and fell down into an abyss.

Kefla grinned as her forearm clashed against Naruto's gauntlet and they met gazes briefly before they both disappeared in a burst of Super Speed, and they kept reappearing and disappearing in different places, running around each other.

While Naruto bounced around, he had a cold smirk on his face as his eyes tinted with danger. Kefla, however, ran around with a broad grin on her face.

Deciding to take the first move, Kefla predicted his next step and where he would be, and she raced off to that direction. Sure enough, he appeared a fraction of the second later with her fist propelled forward, aimed right at Naruto's face.

The boy merely clutched her fist before he gripped it hard, getting a small crack from the joint and he slightly moved it away from his face. Kefla's face twisted with a pained expression and she looked up at his cold, merciless eyes.

"You may have power, you may have speed, but you lack the tact and battle experience." He told her before she was able to rip her hand from his grasp. On cue, she flew back with a small droplet of sweat rolling down her face.

"You run through battle without no consequence and thought. Just on how to do the most damage to your opponent." He proceeded, speaking in a perfect monotone. Though, he stopped to dodge a fury of blows from Kefla, who had appeared in front of him.

He evaded each blow with some trouble. 'Her speed and strength are good, unquestionably she is strong. But she lacks the finesse, skill and creativity to use her power.'

He then dodged a heavy haymaker before he palmed her chest, causing her to cough, feeling her ribs slightly cave under the pressure of the hit. "Do you even stop to consider your actions at all?"

She growled, "Don't lecture me!" She yelled before she kicked him across the face, sending him soaring back.

Naruto opened his eyes slightly as he slowed himself down and looked at her slowly panting form. "Your parents may have trained you, but no doubt that they failed to teach you how to control your impulses. That much is evident," he concluded, now wearing a taunting, condescending smirk on his face as his dark colored eyes glinted with dark humor.

"I thought you would be a challenge," he started before he shifted away slightly. "I'm not even trying, and you're using twice the amount of power then I am at the moment, and yet you can hardly lay a hand on me." He resumed, angering her even further.

Frieza listened, obviously intrigued at how the battle was going to go. Those Saiyans were undoubtedly impressive, both were a good bit stronger then King Vegeta had been, something that had impressed him. While they were still nothing but insects to him, they still had enormous potential, and it made him remember why, deep down, he feared the Saiyan Race.

"You want a challenge?!" She yelled, losing her cool wouldn't even be in the same dimension anymore for describing her state of mind. "Fine!" She screamed before opened her hands and created two balls of bright, light green colored energy.

She then leaned forward and threw them forward. The two spheres shot forward and zigzagged ahead, making the two quickly flying balls harder to track.

Naruto observed the attack quietly before disappeared in a burst of speed at the latest millisecond.

Kefla watched in confusion for a brief second before her stomach grew hot and she glanced down. Her eyes widened as she saw Naruto squatting in front of her and his head resting next to her shoulder. However, what scared the most, was the small ball of red energy that he was holding up to her stomach.

The last thing she saw when the blast blew up, was Naruto's eyes glinting slightly and a rather arrogant smirk twitch on his lips.

She let out a soundless scream as she was consumed by a blast of red energy and she was sent straight into the wall behind her, smashing it in pieces, and it buried her in the rubble.

He casually stood up and looked at the rubble that buried her body in before he turned around and began walking away.

As he walked, Frieza looked with satisfaction. 'Yes… he'll become one of my mightiest warriors yet.'

However, the ground started rocking and a light green glow shined through the field before a great sized explosion was produced. Naruto stopped, but he didn't turn around. He listened and observed as pieces of rubble were launched about all around him, landing in random spots. He watched as some stone and soil hit the ground around him before he whirled around.

'Hmm, so she's tougher then I gave her credit for,' Naruto thought, staring at her. She was wounded, but she wasn't defeated. She made sure he knew of that.

She took a few deep gasps of air before standing straight up and smeared off some blood that ran down her lip. A small current of blood leaked and clasped onto the ground, creating a grotesque sound as a small patch of the land was painted red by the thick liquid. The fabric that was covering her stomach was completely gone and was disintegrated, showing a large bleeding wound on her stomach.

He glanced up and noticed her stumbling, trying to stay standing. "You should have stayed down," he said, staring her in the eyes. "I'm not saying you're weak. No, you're strong, but your green." He continued, getting weirded outlook from her.

"No, not that girl you insolent woman." He snapped. "You may have even slaughtered millions by this point, as the normal Saiyan soldier would have by your age," he said, causing her eyes to widen. "But you were killing weaklings, bugs, ants. And how much effort does it take to squash an ant?" He questioned, knowing that she was listening.

However, she never answered, she just avoided his gaze. "You probably have only fought your parents in a fight, and they probably loved you so much that they cuddled you. Mine, while my mother wasn't that strong, she made me lower my power down to her to her reach, and we fought until one of us was unconscious while bleeding on the ground. Spoiler alert, most of the time, it was me who was laying on the ground bleeding to death. I started doing that the day after I learned how to walk. My father, on the other hand, taught me the tricks of the trade of strategy and such, instilling into me that every action has a reaction and every movement I made on the battlefield, would have a reaction. Whether that was a bad or good reaction, was up to me." He ended, leaving lots of soldiers awed at his speech.

"I see," she murmured. However, she smirked and gradually slid back into a stance. "Then, this will be an ample time to start," she smiled.

Naruto never responded as he eluded a fury of punches, but he was hit by one and then was kneed in the abdomen. Reacting quickly, he reached up and caught her elbow that was about to him in the side of the face before he flipped her upwards by throwing her up.

He then raised a hand and pulsed his Ki outward. Shortly after, an invisible shockwave ejected from his hand and sent her flying upwards. He later appeared from above her with his hands conjoined and along with them mounted above his head. Just as he swung down, Kefla regained control and spun around and caught his hands before she tossed him back into the air.

Naruto flew through the air and evenly landed on one foot, and he dodged another fury of attacks, those were however faster, more precise and creative. While they lacked the power. Naruto was capable of avoiding most of them, but he was hit by a few, which left a few scratches. But he reached up and caught her hand and dropped to his knees before he swiped her legs from out beneath her, causing her to trip and fall back.

She, however, was able to react and re-stabilize herself, but a moment too late as Naruto planted a foot on the center of her face, sending her shooting back. She paused midair and twirled around threw a bright green Ki ball right at him, and it zigzagged.

He quickly recognized that it was the same attack she used on him earlier. But he decided to counter it with his own. Reaching out, he briefly aimed his hand to the ground and shot a Ki ball into the ground, creating a dust cloud.

Kefla smirked arrogantly, "You think that'll stop my attack from hittin' you?!" She laughed and briefly closed her eyes. She froze when she felt a hand resting on her back. Kefla slowly turned her head, and her eyes widened even further when she Naruto standing behind her with his hand extended outward with his hand resting on her back. She stared into his coal black eyes and watched as they narrowed slightly.

"Didn't you learn? Never let down your guard. That's how you got wounded the first time. Think!" He admonished her she was shot forward as a shockwave thrusted her forward and sent her tumbling onto the ground.

She rolled around on the ground and stopped herself before she coughed out a glob of blood. Kefla shakily looked up and stared at him with widened eyes.

"What? You didn't expect me to let you off the hook for that brief lapse of your concentration?" He questioned, a smirk pulling onto his lips.

From above, Frieza observed with a small sneer on his face.

'He's teaching the girl; teaching her how to fight in actual combat against someone stronger than herself,' he thought, not all that upset, just a small bit disgusted. 'He's not like other Saiyans. While he's not caring, he still wants to help his kin. In a way…' Frieza thought somewhat sadly. '… I can understand it. I briefly found myself doing the same thing around two hundred years ago when my home planet was still intact,' he continued as he observed the fight with a critical eye.

Frieza then hovered forward while in his hover car. He clapped slowly as he did so, and a smile lit on his lips. "Excellent. Absolutely wonderful," he clapped, getting their attention. "That is enough. I don't want both of you killing each other." He continued.

"Naruto," he said, getting the boy's attention. "You will be ranked as a High-Class Warrior." He revealed, getting shocked gasps around. "You have the strength to be promoted to a Sector Elite Class Warrior. But I can't do that now. There is more to this job then power," he continued, staring into Naruto's cold black eyes.

"You will have your power level gauged… for record sake," he added as an afterthought. Naruto, however, knew better, but he kept his lips shut and nodded respectfully, which took a lot of restraint.

"Of course," he inclined, his pride sinking lower and lower. Any second, it would be the opposite for a particular emotion that was very active these times.

"Fantastic," came Frieza's jolly reply before his expression turned deadly. "Soldier! Bring in the device. And be snappy about it!" He added.

Soon, a green-skinned alien came running forward with a large device resting on his shoulder as he carried it with ease. He leaped over the wall and landed over near Naruto.

He then looked over to Frieza and bowed lowly. "My lord," he parted before he leaped back into the crowd, further disappearing.

"Now, since I believe that you do not know how to operate this machine, I shall demonstrate," Frieza said as got out of his hover car. He then dropped downwards slowly and landed with grace, his toes hitting the foul ground underneath him. He walked over to the machine and gestured to it.

The machine was the size of an average size human adult and was circular and shaped like an oversize drum. In the center of it, was a circular funnel with blue glowing, internal wiring lining through it.

"This contraption is an old piece of tech that is used to monitor power levels. It's also much more stable and accurate then scouters." He explained. "However, the only reason we don't use this as scouters, is for the simple factor, that every soldier would be carrying around a two-ton heavy machine and that would inhibit them more than not knowing their enemies strength."

"Now, watch…" Frieza led off before he stuck his hand inside and twisted it slightly. Then machine glowed a deep purple before screens appeared around and they showed a series of changing numbers.

Naruto watched with keen curiosity before the number stopped and glowed red. His eyes widened in before they settled down. '530,000?!' He thought, nervous sweat rolling down his face.

"As you can see, this machine does wonders in a controlled environment," Frieza chuckled before the machine released his arm and he pulled back accordingly. On cue, the numbers faded as did the screens. He then looked over to a slightly sweating Naruto and smiled a not so friendly grin. "I see, it's your first time seeing my power level. Isn't it?" It was an inoffensive question, but it held so much significance.

Not trusting himself to speak, he just nodded mutely. "I see. I don't blame you in that sense. You presumably haven't seen a power level as high as mine. So, I can totally understand."

There was no arrogance in his tone, simply false sympathy and understanding. While his words did hold arrogance, there was none with how it was delivered. But, even then, Naruto didn't care. He knew now why that bastard was so sure of himself.

'But, 530,000! That's… inconceivable!' He thought before he shook his head, snapping himself out of his funk.

"I'm assuming you want me to use it, do you not?" The way Naruto delivered the question was great, he withheld his emotions accordingly, and it sounded just like he was asking for confirmation.

Frieza only nodded and gestured to the machine.

Swallowing his fear and nervousness, he marched up slowly stuck his hand inside and followed the warlord's example and lightly twisted his arm. Immediately after that, the machine glowed a deep red before screens appeared all over with numbers changing across them. Just as when Frieza did so.

51,000.

He couldn't believe it. Even Frieza was surprised. 'What?!' The warlord thought shocked to the core. The last read the boy's power level was barely half of that, but his surprise melted away and a manipulative form replaced it.

"You're not at your full power… are you, Naruto?"

The boy's eyes widened, but he closed his eyes and concentrated. After some concentration, surprise flooded him when he realized that the monster was right. But… Frieza didn't need to know that.

"No, sir I am." He shook his head.

Frieza seemed to pause briefly before he nodded. "Excellent then, my boy. A power level of fifty-one thousand is no small feat." He raised. "Zarbon, get this boy to his chambers. He deserves his rest," he ordered, receiving a nod of affirmative from the man in the crowd.

Zarbon, from his spot in the crowd, sprang onto battleground and walked over to Naruto with something akin to respect in his eyes. "Let's go, boy. If what I think Lord Frieza has prepared for you is correct, then you will defiantly need you're rest."

Naruto nodded, not finding it in himself to argue. He followed the man out, walking past a crowd of fearful foot officers and they stared at him with fear and respect as they caved way. They all looked at him with fear evident in their eyes, praying that he didn't kill them all to sedate his bloodlust. Morons. The lot of them. Once they broke through, they made their way through the passageways and made into the hallway.

"I am nearly positive you know your way?" Came Zarbon's question as he walked with arms clasped behind his back.

"Yeah…" Naruto spoke slowly, still processing the changes.

"Well then…" Zarbon spoke. "Get a good night's rest, clean off, do whatever. But, be ready by Seven A.M. Got it?"

Naruto bowed and walked away, no further words or quips needed. He wasn't about to compare dick sizes with him. Plus, he was pretty sure he could beat the shit out him if push came to shove, so he wasn't too worried about it.

After strolling through the halls, he found his way to his room, and he cautiously planted his hand on the door, and it glowed green momentarily before it opened. Looking curiously before he shrugged and walked inside.

Once he passed inside, the door withdrew and closed, and it made a series of noises. 'Chambers closing… it must've locked by its own… or by another's command,' Naruto analytically evaluated before sighed unhappily and stepped forward. He let his hands fall by his side and stared upward.

"Why am I here?" He asked as stared forward. "Planet Vegeta is destroyed. Planet Krypton is gone. I am the last of both races… bar the woman that I fought before." He mumbled. He sighed once more before he went over to his dresser.

He then started stripping out of his armor. Once he was finished, he held his purple armored gauntlets in his hands as he stared at them. 'I'm going to become… what I've never wanted to become. I'm going be forced to become the same monster that I wanted to kill Frieza for being,' he muttered as he clenched his gauntlets.

"Maybe… it's for the better." He muttered once more. "I don't even know what I want anymore. My mother always said: 'Be the strongest warrior in the Universe. For I, know you have the potential. A union between our races has never been done and for you, are one of the first natural hybrid for both races.' She took pride in that." He smiled as a tear trailed down his cheek. "But she never did explain what that involved. She never specified if I was supposed to be a ruthless warrior and kill all I came across and who dared to oppose me. Or, give mercy and fight only to push myself." He continued.

'It's just so confusing…' he thought. 'When I killed that soldier, I felt no shame, just pity that I was the one who did it.' He thought gritted teeth. 'Does that make me a monster, a cold-blooded, heartless, compassionless monster?'

"Damn, I'm so pathetic." He whispered before he dropped his gauntlets on the dresser, getting a resounding clang.

He turned around and walked over to his bed. He set down with his hands in his lap before he swung himself over, laying down entirely with his hands resting behind his head. He stared upward, and a gave a small smile.

"Who knows…" he scoffed, but he still held a smile, but it seemed to be a bit bitter. "Even in death, they still can find a way to bug me, heh."

He lightly chuckled before his eyes started closing and soon after, he fell asleep to rest a dreamless session.

(1): Naruto's armor is an exact copy of Turles' armor from The Tree of Might special.

(2): With how I will be ranking technology, it's the same with how the Ben 10 verse does it. It will go up to level 20, and level 20 technology entails devices that have the potential to destroy the Universe multiple times. I will go into more detail at a later date.

(3): Its Kefla's base canon hairstyle, even with the ponytail.

(4): Vegeta's classical battle stance. If you are having trouble, look up Goku vs Vegeta (Saiyan Saga) and look at the stance that Vegeta uses in the beginning of their fight and that's the one Naruto uses against Kefla.
