The Saiyan of Namek
Chapter 1: The Arrival of Evil
Many years had passed since a strange ball shaped pod had crashed into the mountains of Planet Namek; The Namekian's naturally had been wary of this strange tailed child who'd stepped out of the wreck before passing out from head trauma caused from a faulty seat belt during the crash landing.
Taken in and raised like any of the other children once High Elder Guru had judged the child to pose no threat to the people of Namek; and given the name Raijin; or Crashing Thunder as one other Namekian child named Nail called him as a joke which never failed to make them both or the other Namekian Children laugh.
Raijin and Nail trained and learnt together constantly; learning history, honing skills, learning flight, every day they both improved in both body and mind and drew the admiration of many of their peers.
"Nail, what do you seek in life?" Raiji asked; now as an adult; he wore the white baggy pants and tunic of a Namekian along the red waist sash of the Warrior Clan.
Nail looked over and gave an honest answer; "I want to serve and protect Lord Guru; that is my purpose"
Raijin gave a short laugh, "aren't we both already doing that?!"
Nail smiled and nodded; but he then stood up and stared up into the green skies above them; Raijin did the same and stared up, he could not sense aura's as well as Nail or any of the Elder's could but he knew someone or something was coming.
Then they saw it; a round oval shaped ship descending through the clouds and flying over to the outer lands; Raijin could no longer sense the ship but they both know that High Elder Guru could.
Raijin and Nail rushed into the house and rose through the ceiling to meet with Guru; the oldest Namek and a father figure to both Raiji and Nail; Lord Guru as always sat in a white throne facing a large window looking out over Namek; the Sacred One Star Dragon Ball sitting at the top of the throne, to this day Raijin had never seen all seven gathered together.
"A great evil has arrived; I weep for the loss of my children; the villages at the outer lands has been destroyed" Guru spoke in his slow voice.
Raijin and Nail both felt shocked by the sudden arrival and immediate destruction of a village; and the location of one of their seven Dragon Balls.
"Lord Guru; I ask permission to leave and face these… theses… evil-doers" Raijin sank to his hands and knees before Guru as he begged for permission.
"No, my son… you and Nail are our finest and strongest warriors, but as you well know; your duty is to stay here"
Raijin bowed his head and left the house; Nail wordlessly bowed his head and followed; to his surprise Raiji had not flown off, he stood at the cliff edge and stared out at the distant lands; trying to sense but only feeling chills of the evil that radiated down to his core; almost like he'd sensed this evil before.
"I can see how badly you want to go; but it is too dangerous for either of us; we must do our duty" Nail spoke with his calm expression and calm voice.
Raijin stood up and grabbed Nail but his dark blue coat; shouting in his face "how can you stand there while your brothers are being murdered one after another!"
Nail raised his right hand delivering a backhanded slap to Raijin's face so hard he nearly fell off the cliff edge; "I know my place Raijin… despite how badly I want to fly off and fight just like you… I will do my duty.
Raijin touched his cheek; the pain was immense but he now understood that Nail felt the same as he did; he too wanted to face whatever had invaded; but their duty was to protect Guru and now, that was the most important thing they could be doing for their people.
