Chapter 2: Revenge of An Enemy Past!
Gohan arrived at Capsule Corporation quickly, not even bothering to answer the door lady he walked into Bulma's lab.
"Bulma, can I borrow a ship?" He asked.
"Your mother called me Gohan, I can't let you go to New Namek alone." She said.
"I have to." He argued.
"No you don't, at least yet Vegeta go with you, he'll make sure you come back." She said.
"I just beat the crap outta him, he's probably still sleeping in the rocky plains." Gohan said, "No one can touch me if I go to level two and you know that." He said.
"Brat, I'm going with you." Vegeta walked into the lab, still beat up.
"I'm going too." Tien walked into the room, "I thought that you would be going, and when I sensed you and Vegeta fighting I sorta guessed that you would end up here." He said.
"Fine, do you have a ship for us?" Gohan asked Bulma once again.
"I do, just because I knew this would happen, it's built for seven so you guys should be roomy enough." She said.
Bulma led the three towards a large ship that reminded Gohan of the first one that they took to Namek, except twice the size. The door opened and a ramp came down.
"The co-ordinates are already in place, and there's a gravity chamber in there if you guys wanna train a bit, but I doubt it could handle Super Saiyan two so don't over do it." She glared at Gohan.
"Thanks Bulma! We'll be back soon." Gohan said, "Tell my mom I say sorry."
"Good luck." Bulma responded as the three stepped into the ship and took off immediately.
"Brat, Gravity Room, now!" Vegeta ordered.
"I'm going to take a nap." Gohan rebutted.
"I would train with you, but I'm no match." Tien said, "do you mind if I go in alone?"
"I will accompany you, and it will be put to my settings, if you die it's your fault." Vegeta said.
"Of course." Tien sighed and walked in behind the Saiyan Prince.
Vegeta turned the panel on the room up to 50gs, or 50X Earth's gravity, Tien sunk to the floor immediately, struggling to get up. Vegeta began to do one handed push ups.
Ten minutes later Tien had finally gotten semi-used to the Gravity, he was able to fly and was currently shadow-fighting while Vegeta continued his push-ups, then Tien was pushed down once more as the gravity doubled to 100gs, needless to say, Tien couldn't move. Even Vegeta was having issues as the gravity change had surprised him.
The door opened and Gohan walked in, yawning, "Hey guys, sorry I didn't think that the change would affect you that much." He said as he calmly walked towards one side and began shadow-fighting, working on his Demon-style techniques as he was getting rusty, he had been relying mainly on the Turtle-Kami-Kai style his dad was teaching him in the Time Chamber.
Tien was having similar thoughts, 'How powerful is he that 100gs is nothing to him?'
After two days of training, Tien could handle 50gs easily, and could shadow-box in 100gs, Vegeta hadn't made much progress, and Gohan hadn't seemed phased by the the Gravity Room whatsoever. The ship was nearing New Namek, they would be there within minutes.
ARRIVING AT DESTINATION the ship beeped.
"Let's go guys." Gohan got up as the ship landed, waiting by the door, "We'll meet here as soon as we have all seven, split up." He said, taking off.
"Let's go." Tien said, flying in a different direction.
"I'll stand guard." Vegeta muttered after Tien left, if his instincts were right, then someone would be after the balls. He took out the radar that Bulma had left him with, there were three blips all in the same place, and one blip coming towards him.
A few minutes later, Tien landed next to him, "The village was really close, and they remembered what Goku and the others did, as soon as I told them that it was to revive Goku they were all for it." He explained.
"The brat's in trouble." Vegeta said, "Bulma installed a new function that works almost like a scouter, except it scans a much larger area, the bigger the blip the stronger." He explained, pointing at the blips, the blue one represented Gohan, it was the largest on the map by far, except for one, a dark red blip that was larger than Gohan's, and was surrounded by five blips around the same size of Tien's.
"Should we go help?" Tien asked, he could see that Gohan was heading right towards the six blips and was worried.
"Only if he needs it, besides one of us has to stay here, you can go if you want." Vegeta said, surprising Tien, Vegeta never passed up a fight.
"I'm going then." Tien said, taking off towards Gohan.
Gohan flew off towards the highest power that he felt on the planet, a power that rivaled his own. It was probably one of Frieza's old men that decided to take revenge on the Namekians for their master's death.
As he neared the power, he felt five others that were around Tien's level, above average for one of Frieza's men, but nothing that would pose any threat to Gohan whatsoever.
He felt another power approach him from behind, it was Tien. Gohan slowed down to allow the Triclops to catch up.
"Gohan, it's not safe, they're six guys over there, and one of them is just as powerful as you are." Tien said.
"I'm going, there's also three dragonballs over there." Gohan said.
"I know, I'm going to help you." Tien said, "I know the Kaioken so I should be able to take some of 'em out for you."
"Let's go then." Gohan said, doubling his speed towards the group.
The two arrived within minutes, landing and seeing a familiar sight, it was… Goku?
The Saiyan stood there in a blue and black saiyan battle suit. His skin was slightly darker than Goku's and he had a red-scouter on the side of his face. His tail was wrapped around his waist. Beside him there was a large man with a slight red tint to his skin and red hair that was styled in a braided tail and hung over his left shoulder, he wore typical Saiyan battle armor as his top, but his legs were covered by a pair of red martial-art pants.
Tien recognised the two immediately, "Gohan, that's Turles and his lieutenant Amond!" He said.
"Who are they?" Gohan asked.
"Who are we?" Turles, the Saiyan asked as he stalked towards them, "We are the Turles Crusher Corps, and I think I remember you, I turned you into an Oozaru." He said to Gohan. Beside Turles landed four others, a man with punk-rock styled ponytail with armor like Turles, except for the pink leg-warmers he wore. There was also a man who looked to be made of magma with silver armor on. Finally there was a set of short, purple twins who wore the same tops as Turles and blue pants.
"Meet my crew, the big one is Amond, the twins are Lakasei and Rasin, the pink one is Cacao, and the punk is Daiz." Turles said.
"And none of you are a threat, so give me the Dragonballs and move." Gohan said.
"You're acting a bit cocky brat, you and I are equal in power you know." Turles said.
Gohan just powered up to Super Saiyan, sending the men flying away, "No we aren't." The demi-Saiyan said, he wasn't in the mood for Turles.
""GET 'EM!" Turles shouted, charging Gohan and attempting a punch, but Gohan moved and brought his knee up to Turles' gut, causing him to fly upwards, "You think you're strong, I can do that too!" Turles shouted, charging up his energy until he too went Super Saiyan, "Kill Driver!" He shouted, forming a ring of sparking energy and throwing it at Gohan.
"Masenkoooo…" Gohan chanted, putting his hands over his head, "HAA!" He screamed, putting his hands in front of him and shooting a yellow blast of Ki at Turles' attack, countering it and leaving a large dust cloud.
Turles, being more experienced than Gohan, used the dust to his advantage, rushing behind Gohan and kneeing the demi-Saiyan in the back, "You're strong, but not too skilled brat." He said as he held his hand out towards Gohan's head, a ball of Ki forming.
Tien blocked an attack from Cacao with his forearm and an attack from Daiz with his other arm, the two kicks driving him into the ground, "KAIOKEN!" He screamed, a red aura over taking him as he pushed the two back and drove a fist into Cacao's chest, breaking the armor and revealing circuitry, "Dodon-ray!" He said quickly, taking his free hand and forming it into a finger-gun, then blasting a yellow ray threw Cacao's head, killing the cyborg. Tien then dodged a blast from Daiz and turned towards the man, charging and slamming his elbow into his head and sending him flying.
"DIE!" Amond yelled, blasting a large pink burst of Ki at Tien.
'Damn!' Tien thought as he narrowly evaded the attack and flew towards the man as his Kaioken disappeared, "KAIOKEN X3!" He yelled, the red aura returning as his speed tripled, shocking Amond as he felt a powerful fist slam into his gut and at the same time a second fist land on his chin, sending him flying away. Tien's aura faded again as one of the twins fired a yellow beam of Ki at him, piercing his shoulder, "AGH!" Tien bit back a shout as he turned and charged his assailant, performing a roundhouse kick to the strange purple being's head, sending him flying away.
"Lakasei!" The other twin, Rasin, shouted.
"KAIOKEN X3!" Tien shouted, appearing behind Lakasei and driving his heel into the purple alien's head, then forming a finger gun again and shouting "DODON-RAY!" as a yellow beam of Ki pierced Lakasei's head. Tien didn't enjoy the killing, but it had to be done.
"LAKASEI!" Rasin shouted, "You'll pay for that!" He pointed to Tien and fired hundred of little teal beams from his finger.
Tien dodged the attacks easily as the spread on them caused many to miss him completely, but he was soon hit by a large pink ball of energy, sending him towards the ground.
"Got you know." Amond said, landing near him, Rasin on his shoulder. Beside Amond was Daiz.
"Meteor Ball!" Daiz yelled, forming a large purple ball of Ki in his left hand.
"Planet Crusher!" Amond yelled, forming a large pink ball that seemed to release pulses of energy.
"Gemini Ball!" Rasin yelled, forming a teal ball of energy.
"KAIOKEN X5!" Tien yelled as the three balls of Ki flew at him, he jumped up to evade them, then he put his hands over his third eye in the shape of a triangle, "Tri-Beam…" He chanted, gathering Ki in his hands, "HAA!" He shouted, blasting a triangular beam of Ki at the three, completely engulfing them and leaving a large square shaped crater in the ground. Tien smiled as he fell to the ground, slamming down hard as he lost consciousness.
Turles was about to fire his blast when Gohan screamed, "GET OUT OF MY WAY!", Ki rolling off the nine year old that sent Turles flying, "I NEED THE DRAGONBALLS, AND I WILL GET THEM, ONE WAY OR ANOTHER!" He yelled, standing up as the ground around him cracked, "SO GET THEM, AND GIVE THEM TO ME, NOW!" He screamed at Turles, he had reached his breaking point, and had snapped. He was now a being of pure rage, rage that had been building for the past three months, and had grown exponentially each day.
Turles pulled out a fruit, it was a light-orange color and was spiked, "This is a fruit of the tree of might, it multiplies my power by ten." Turles said, taking a bite and throwing the fruit to the ground, "So now you can't do anything to me." He laughed as his aura grew.
"HRRAAAAA!" Gohan screamed, ascending to the second level of Super Saiyan, causing his aura to disappear and lightning to spark around him, "Wanna bet?" He asked smugly, his anger was still there, but he was going to use it to his advantage, Vegeta had once told him that when a Saiyan experienced true anger, their power could multiply itself by over ten times, but the anger that Gohan felt was a much greater multiplier than that, Gohan's power was growing at such an exponential rate that it caused Turles' scouter to shatter, Gohan disappeared, shocking Turles as he couldn't keep up with the boy's movements.
"Where did you go?" Turles shouted.
"Behind you." Gohan muttered, jumping up and kicking Turles in the face as the Saiyan turned to look, sending him flying, "Still behind you." Gohan said again, once again behind Turles, this time flying as the older Saiyan flew from his attack, Gohan lifted his legs and planted both of his feet into Turles' back hard, sending the man flying upwards, "Kaa-mee-haaa-mee-HAAA!" Gohan shouted, bringing his cupped hands to his side then quickly releasing the blast, obliterating Turles.
Gohan heard clapping and turned his head towards the noise, revealing an alien that looked like Frieza, but was much taller and more masculine looking. He had deep purple skin with white armor-like carapaces on his arms, legs, and head, as well as a blew jewel-like object on his head, "You managed to defeat Turles, but how will you fare against me?" The alien asked.
"Quite well." Gohan said, appearing in front of the alien and throwing a punch towards his gut, but it was stopped by the alien's tail wrapping around his wrist.
"You are Son Goku's child correct, Son Gohan I believe." The alien said, "I am Cooler, the elder brother of Frieza. I fought your father once, he nearly killed me. Now I can exact my revenge on you." Cooler smiled sadistically as he raised Gohan up and threw him.
"You'll need to try harder than that." Gohan said from behind Cooler, jumping up and kicking him in the head, sending the Frost-Demon flying.
Cooler stopped himself by digging his tail into the ground, "Seems I will have to try against you." Cooler began to transform, his muscle mass grew exponentially, and his head carapace formed a mask with large spikes coming off the back. The carapaces on his legs grew the blue jewels that his head had, as did his arms, which also grew a large spike. His eyes became red, "Are you ready to fight a true warrior?" Cooler asked, his voice had deepened.
"I don't see one." Gohan smirked as he noticed Cooler's ire growing, Cooler wouldn't be a problem for him.
"Cocky little brat eh?" Cooler said, taking a familiar fruit from the ground, Gohan hadn't noticed, but all around them there were fruits from a Tree of Might. Cooler took a bite of the fruit, immediately a large purple aura overtook him, crackling with electricity, "This feels great." Cooler said, "Now, let's dance."
"Let's." Gohan smirked, Cooler was now a little stronger than resurrected Cell.
Vegeta stood guard of the single Dragonball they had. He looked at the radar and saw that Tien's power was extremely weak, meaning he was unconscious, and he could feel two large powers, one was Gohan, and the other was reminiscent of Frieza, 'Is Cooler here?' Vegeta asked himself, but Cooler wasn't anywhere near Gohan's level when he had last seen the Frost-Demon, and the opponent Gohan was facing was above even Cell. He looked at the radar and saw that the three Dragonballs were still in the same place as before, and noticed three energy signatures converging on his position, 'It is Cooler.' He said as he felt the energies, he could instantly tell that Salza was coming, and that meant that Neiz and Dore were also coming.
Just as Vegeta predicted, three warriors landed in front of him, the one in the middle was blue skinned and had blond hair that swept to the left, the one on the right was a green-skinned hulk of a being that had black hair and a helmet, and the final was a brown-skinned amphibian-like creature.
"Cooler's Armored Squadron." Vegeta noted, "The slightly less flamboyant Ginyu Force." He mocked.
"You take that back!" Salza yelled.
"Make me." Vegeta smirked, powering up to Super Saiyan. The blue-skinned alien charged him and formed a purple Ki-blade on each of his hands, as Salza attempted to slash Vegeta, the Saiyan grabbed each arm and shoved them into Salza's chest, killing the blue-skinned alien instantly, he dropped Salza and pointed one hand at the remaining two members of Cooler's attack force, "BIG BANG…!" He shouted, forming a large ball of molten Ki, "ATTACK!" He screamed, shooting the ball along the ground towards the two petrified warriors, vaporizing them, "Che," He spat as he powered down, "That was boring."
Gohan charged at Cooler, jumping and attempting a kick to Cooler's temple. Cooler's tail shot up and grabbed Gohan's leg, slamming the demi-Saiyan to the ground then throwing him away.
"Death Beam." Cooler said, shooting a pink beam of concentrated Ki at Gohan, piercing the boy's shoulder.
'That hurt.' Gohan thought, though externally he showed no signs that the blast had affected him, "That all you got?" He asked cockily, flying at Cooler in a burst of speed that surprised the tyrant and slamming his knee into his gut, causing Cooler to reel forwards. Gohan shot his foot up to meet Cooler's chin, sending him flying backwards, "I thought you would be hard." Gohan mocked, he knew that his blows didn't do much to Cooler, but hoped that Cooler was like Frieza in the respect that his power was the same from birth and hadn't trained to obtain it.
"YOU BRAT!" Cooler shouted, his aura growing with his anger, "I'll destroy you and this entire planet!" Cooler had become desperate, this boy was more powerful than his fifth form times ten! "Eat this, Supernova!" He shouted, quickly forming a ball of molten Ki over a single outstretched finger, he flung his hand towards the ground and the ball flew towards the planet at an incredible speed.
Gohan instantly got into a Kamehameha stance, "KAA-MEE!" He chanted, "HAA-MEE!" HE continued as a blue orb of Ki appeared, he held his chant until the ball was larger than him, "HAAAAAAAA!" He shouted, pushing the attack forwards, the Super Kamehameha meeting the Supernova head-on.
The two trump cards met in the middle of their users, both warriors pushing with all their might to overcome the other.
"GOHAN, YOU'VE GOTTA WIN!" Tien shouted, he had woken up and seen Gohan fighting, but had stayed silent until this moment.
"Brat, show me your power." Vegeta had shown up as well, after ensuring that there was no one else who would steal their Dragonball or their ship.
Gohan pushed harder than he ever had before, even against Cell, he used all of his anger and let it loose in a single burst, causing his already large Kamehameha to double in size and completely overcome Cooler's blast, and Cooler himself. The blast continued on to pierce the atmosphere and eradicate Cooler.
Gohan let go of the blast and fell out of his transformed state, landing on his knees.
"Good going Brat, I'll collect the Dragonballs, Three-eye's bring you back to the ship." Vegeta said, flying off. Tien grabbed Gohan and brought him back to the ship.
Vegeta returned with the last three Dragonballs half an hour later and placed them all on a circle, "BRAT!" He yelled, "Come get your stupid father back."
"I'm here Vegeta." Gohan walked over, he saw that Vegeta had Moori with him. Moori was a large Namekian who had taken over as elder after Guru's death.
"Gohan, it is nice to see you again, how is Dende doing?" Moori smiled.
"It's nice to see you too Elder-Moori." Gohan smiled back, "Dende is great, he remade our Dragonballs and they are stronger now than they have ever been."
"That's great." Moori's smile grew, "I hear you want to wish your father back to life." Moori said sadly, "I will help you with this."
"I have three wishes right?" Gohan asked.
"Correct." Moori responded.
"Could you also wish him here please." He asked.
"And for the third wish?" Moori asked.
"Vegeta, it's all yours." Gohan said.
"Yea, I'm happy with Goku coming back." Tien said.
'I can wish for immortality and they won't stop me.' Vegeta then thought about Trunks and Bulma, 'But then I'd live on, without them.' He realised, "For my wish," He started, then thought about something that he wanted, "I want my tail back." He said finally.
"Very well." Moori said, raising his hands, "Takkaraput pop porunga pupiritt paro!" He chanted, causing the sky to turn black and a large, muscular dragon to appear, "Porunga-sama!" Moori said, "I beg of you to grant our three wishes."
"As long as it is within my power." Porunga said, his deep voice booming.
"Firstly I wish for the Saiyan by the name of Son Goku to be revived!" Moori said.
Porunga's eyes flashed, "It has been done. State your second wish."
"Please bring Son Goku to our planet of New Namek." Moori asked.
Porunga's eyes flashed yet again, "Your wish has been granted, state your third and final wish."
"For our final wish, please give the Saiyan warrior Vegeta his tail back." Moori said.
Porunga's eyes flashed as Vegeta's brown tail ripped through his blue leggings and wrapped around his waist, "Your wish has been granted." Porunga stated as he receded into the Dragonballs, which turned to stone and flew back to their villages.
"Thank you elder-Moori." Gohan bowed.
"Thank you sir." Tien also bowed.
"Thanks." Vegeta muttered, crossing his arms.
"It is I who should thank you, if it wasn't for your father and your friends, we wouldn't be alive." Moori said, "But I must return to my post, I bid you farewell." Moori said as he flew away.
"Gohan?" A voice came from behind them.
The trio turned around and saw Goku.
"DAD!" Gohan shouted, rushing at Goku and punching him hard in the stomach, "You left us and refused to come back!"
"It was to protect you Gohan." Goku said as he held Gohan's wrists, "You, your mother, and the entire planet."
Tears streamed down Gohan's face, "How are you protecting us by leaving us alone? If there's a threat to Earth I'll just destroy them!" Gohan yelled, "I don't want to, but I'm the strongest, I have the most potential, I'll train and defeat anyone who threatens Earth!" Gohan cried.
Goku pulled his son into a hug, "I'm sorry Gohan, I didn't know, please forgive me, I'll come back with you." Goku said, carrying Gohan into the ship as Tien started it and Vegeta went to the Gravity Room.
I hope you liked it, next chapter will be the last one in the DBZ Universe, then we'll move onto Naruto's childhood for a bit, then have the two meet finally. Leave a review or PM me if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions. And yes I know that Frieza's race isn't called Frost-Demons, but I wanted to give it a name and that's my favorite for them. Thanks for reading.
