Currently stuck in an alien's body, Goku is watching in horror the scene that is taking place in front of his eyes.
Ginyu is lying defeated on the ground and, above him, Vegeta is floating, ready to finish him off, destroying Goku's
body in the proccess.
Wait, Vegeta,don't kill him. I want my body back cries Goku.
Vegeta turns to him.
Well, kiss my butt, Kakarrot. And, after i've killed him, you're next.
He turns to Ginyu again.
So, where were we?
Then, for some reason, Ginyu smiles.
That's it. He's going to do that swap thingie again Goku thinks. This is my chance to take my body back.
He flies as fast as he can towards the swapping blast. Unfortunately, his wound on the chest finally takes the
best of him and he's forced to land.
N-no he curses.
The next moment,Vegeta finds himself lying on the ground, full of injuries and unable to move, without being
able to explain it. And, wait, who's that other him floating above?
Hehe, haven't you realized yet, you stupid monkey? Ginyu mocks him. I took your body. Well, i guess, one way
or another, Goku's body will be destroyed by Vegeta's one.
No, mister Ginyu. Don't destroy my dad's body, please pleads Gohan.
Ginyu turns to him.
Heh. Sorry brat ,i don't do favors.
Without further ado, he fires a plain, unamplified blast, which is nonetheless enough to annihilate Goku's battered
body. Goku is shocked. He's trying to realize what has just happened. Even if he somehow survives this battle, he
will be forced to spend the rest of his life as an ugly alien.
Ginyu lands and starts walking towards Goku, slowly and sadistically.
It was a mistake that i left you alive he says. I should've killed you immediately after i had taken your body.
Well, it's never too late to correct your mis...
He's interrupted by a deafening scream. Goku, Ginyu and Kuririn all turn to Gohan. He's yelling at the top of his
lungs, covered by a white aura. Kuririn is shocked by the tremendous chi emitted by the young Saiyan. Goku
cannot feel the chi, since he hasn't got used to Ginyu's body yet, but, knowing his son, something really good is
about to happen. Ginyu is just looking without worrying.
Hmf. That brat does not know when to give u... he begins saying, only to be interrupted by a piercing pain in
the guts, for, in less than one second, Gohan has crossed the distance between them and punched him in the
belly. Ginyu is shocked. How could that brat hurt him so much with just one punch?
The very next moment,a kick on the chin has sent Ginyu up in the sky.
MASSENKO-HAAA Gohan yells and kills Ginyu with his signature move, annihilating Vegeta's body in the
proccess.
Kuririn runs to the panting Gohan.
Dude, are you okay now? he asks.
Gohan calms down and turns towards the direction he can feel Freeza's chi.
That way he mumbles. He turns to Kuririn.
Take care of dad. I'll go beat that Freeza guy.
You're going to fight Freeza all alone? Kuririn cries. You must be insane.
I won't calm down till i beat all the creeps Gohan yells.
Kuririn gulps and decides to obey. That determination he saw in Gohan's eyes. It was the same as the one he
had seen in Goku's eyes, when the latter insisted on fighting Nappa all alone.
Gohan arrives to the battlefield. He sees Nail, lying on the ground, almost dead, and Freeza looking at him.
I've been expecting you, brat the tyrant says. I have a scouter, you know.
Gohan...go away Nail says, in a weakened voice.
When he sees the injured Nail, Gohan feels his rage swelling once more. Freeza gets terrified by the reading of
his scouter.
This is impossible he thinks, sweating. The brat's power has surpassed 900.000 ! And it keeps rising !
Freeza knows that, if this goes on, the scouter will break, for its maximum measuring capacity is 999.999
Before he can finish that thought, Gohan has appeared floating right above his head. With a kick, he sends the
tyrant far away, until a rock stops him. Freeza stays down, among the rock's fragments, his neck twisted and eyes
blank.
Okay, Freeza dead. Job done Gohan whispers, having calmed down.
He runs to Nail.
Gohan, is that really you? the Namek asks in disbelief.
Everything will be fine Gohan whispers gently. Carrying Nail on his back, he flies back to Freeza's spaceship.
Dende arrives at Freeza's spaceship soon after Gohan. He heals Goku and Nail. Then, they summon Porunga.
They bring back Piccolo, so the Earth dragonballs return. With the second wish, they revive Chaozu, who has
already been revived once and cannot be brought back by the Earth's set. Meanwhile, on Earth, Kami and Popo
use the Earth dragonballs to revive all the victims of Freeza's army. So, everyone returns, except Vegeta, since
his body has been annihilated and his soul has nowhere to return to (remember that, unlike Porunga, Shenron
cannot put back bodies).
Okay, time for the third wish Kuririn cries in excitement. Dende, ask Porunga to give Goku his original body
back.
Without looking too optimistic, Dende speaks the wish.
I'm sorry, but this isn't possible Porunga replies. I cannot affect creatures stronger than my creator.
Everyone, except Goku, looks shocked.
Kuririn, think of something Gohan pleads. You're the clever one here.
Yeah, we have to think of something Kuririn agrees. Knowing Chichi, she definitely won't be very happy to
see Goku like that.
After a few moments of all the gang thinking, Dende has an idea.
Hey, i forgot to tell you that Porunga can bring back someone, even if his body has been , if
Goku dies and gets revived, he'll return in his original body.
Kuririn and Gohan are now excited. Right after that, Kuririn becomes embarassed and turns to Goku.
Err...Goku, one of us has to kill you, now. Then, we'll ask Porunga to revive you, so...
Forget it Goku yells. I won't go through all that for the sake of my wife's love. If she does not want to accept
me as i am, so be it.
W-what are you saying Goku? asks Kuririn in disbelief.
Enough Goku yells. Let's go home. Dende, use your third wish for whatever you want.
WHAT IS THIS? Chichi yells, ready to faint. How dare you coming back looking like that? I demand that you go
and find a way to fix this right NOW.
Goku gives her a sad laugh.
You're so predictable, honey he says.
Oh, don't play noble Chichi retorts. If the situation was the other way around, would you accept me having this
face? Would you still love me?
I never loved you in the first place Goku answers. I only married you in order not to break my promise. And
you always knew it. Don't pretend you didn't.
Chichi remains silent for a few moments, knowing that what Goku said is true.
Even so she finally speaks, i thought we could have a happy life together.
Well, maybe we could have, if you weren't obsessed with what you thought the perfect family to be like Goku
says. Whatever, i'll leave. I'll go far away.
He goes to his room. He puts on his new red gi his tailor made, since his size is now bigger.
Ahh, this is a lot more comfortable than the uniform of Freeza's army he thinks.
Gohan enters. Even though his parents had told him to go out, he has heard their quarrel. Father and son hug.
Looking at his father feels weird for Gohan. Not long ago, that same face made him feel fear and resentment.
Dad, don't leave he says and starts crying. I love you no matter what you look like.
I know, son a smiling Goku says. But, right now, i just feel the need to go very far. I'll take my spaceship and
travel to outer space.
But, what about us? Who will protect us? Gohan asks sobbing.
Goku laughs.
Well, as things turned out, you now possess far greater power than mine. You're the Earth's protector. So,
stop crying. You're a Saiyan warrior, not a crybaby.
Father and son spend the rest of the day together. In the evening, Goku goes to Capsule Corp. Dr Brief has
repaired Goku's spaceship and reloaded it with food. The former Saiyan enters the vehicle and it flies high, until
it is lost in the sky. Hidden behind a bush, with his chi suppressed, Gohan is watching.
I'll be waiting for you, dad he whispers.
