10 years later... I do not own Dragon Ball Z. I own only my OCs, Cara, Arti and Cress.
Bardock was training his two sons, and their two destined mates. Nappa, seeing how Bardock was a Low Class, argued that the Prince and his destined mate will not be trained by him, but by an Elite. The former Commander of the Saiyan Army. They changed planets every now and then, after Bardock told them all what happened to Planet Vegeta, all they did was train, eat and sleep. They had to take out Frieza.
"Come on, Kakarot, stay on your feet!" Bardock exclaims while Raditz phased behind him, aiming a kick in his side. Bardock turns and blocks it with his arm, punching Raditz in the face. "Come on, you can do better than that!"
Raditz and Kakarot nod at each other, phasing in and out sight. They appear in front of Bardock with an onslaught on punches and kicks, and some ki blasts. Their father was blocking most of their attacks, more or less some hitting him in the chest and face. They both do a back flip and land next to each other.
"Block this, Father!" Raditz shouts towards Bardock. "Saturday Crush!"
"Blue Destroyer!" Kakarot launches his attack towards his father.
Bardock launched an attack of his own, "Full Power Energy Wave!" Their attacks meet in the middle, the older Saiyan's blast over powering theirs. Raditz is on his knees, breathing heavily, but gets up quick and launches at his father again, throwing a barrage of punches. He punches his father in the face and follows up with a punch to the gut. As soon as he got a hit in, Bardock grabbed his wrist and hit him in the side, throwing him at Kakarot. But he swiftly dodges his air borne brother and throws rapid ki blasts at his dad.
"Come on, Dad!" Kakarot shouts.
Bardock flies in at his son, kicking him in the chin, then punching him in the left cheek. Blood spurts out of his mouth as Kakarot falls to the ground, barely conscious.
"That's enough training for today, you two did well." Bardock says honestly.
"Yeah.. I.. think so.. too." Raditz says in between breaths. "We'll be fully.. healed soon... and we'll.. be ready to fight again." 'Hopefully quicker.'
"Don't talk, just catch your breath and watch Kakarot. I'm going to check on the girls." He says while walking away.
"HIIIYA!" Cara and Cress are going at it in the sky. Cress leaps forward and punches Cara in the gut.
"..gh," Cara doubles over and falls to her knees, some blood coming out of her mouth. She stands up slowly, clutching her stomach. "No.. I'm not finished yet!" She growls and launches at the older female, catching her off guard striking her in the mouth. Not stopping there, she phases behind her, and kicks her in the back, watching as she falls toward the ground, launches her special attack.
"Planet Buster!" She launches the attack at Cress but she phases out of the way, just as the attack skims by her.
"It'll take more than that to do me in," she states matter of factly, wiping off her lip. "But I'll hand it to ya, you're getting strong. It's just natural for me to be stronger."
'We'll see about that,' the younger female warrior thinks to herself and launches in to attack again. She aims to plant her fist right across Cress's face, but she grabs both of her fists, and kicks her in the side, finishing up by hitting her in the stomach again, then lacing her fingers together, striking the young Saiyan in the back and letting her plummet to the ground.
'Maybe I went a little too hard...' She thinks while landing on the ground. "Cara, are you still alive?"
She grunts. "No.. yeah I'm fine," she pushes the words out as she's struggling to get up.
"I can't hold back on you, all of us have to get stronger if we're to defeat Frieza and the rest of his army." She says while carefully picking her up. 'And when the time comes, hopefully we'll all stand a chance.'
"Cress, Cara!" They both turn their heads to the voice that could be no other than...
"Bardock!" Cara cries, while still on Cress's shoulder. "Cress said I did good during our spar!"
"It's true, she didn't get knocked out this time," she states obviously. "But then again, this sparring match wasn't nearly as long as the one we had last time."
"That's good, girls. If we keep going at this rate, we'll be able to over throw.. Frieza." He got a headache just saying his name. 'If we're lucky.' he thinks. "Now come on, I'm sure Raditz wants to see you, Cress." She smiled at the thought. "Kakarot might be awake now Cara, and I'm sure he'd like to fight you after he heals."
Cress puts Cara down gently, the younger female smiled happily. "Come on, Bardock, you know he doesn't like to rest. Let's go!"
"Look who finally decided to show up," Prince Vegeta said nonchalantly when Bardock and the two girls landed.
"Hmph. Well, Vegeta, we hunted for food on our way here." He says as he drops two creatures the size of elephants on the ground. Vegeta smirked.
Cara sat down next to Kakarot, legs crossed. "Hi Kakarot," she said, blushing. She was half a year older than Kakarot was.
"Hey Cara," he said smiling. They held hands in front of the fire waiting for the food to finish cooking.
Raditz and Cress sat across from them, on the other side of the fire.
"How did your trainin' go?" Raditz asked, eager to get a conversation started. Cress shrugged.
"It went pretty well, I can feel myself getting stronger," she grinned. Raditz laughed.
"Well, soon, you and me, pretty girl. I'll show you strong." Cress blushed.
Not too far away, Prince Vegeta was talking to Arti, saying how good she did during the training.
"I can see your improvements, Arti. I think you're stronger than Nappa is, really." He said through a smirk.
"It's no small feat, but he's too busy training us to train himself," she states.
"Even so..." he trailed off, smelling the cooked food. He glances at Bardock. "It's done."
"Right, sorry," he says. "Sorry Prince."
They help themselves to the gigantic platter of food, but being Saiyans, it wasn't going to take long for it to be gone. They ate in silence, talking while eating wasn't a habit for Saiyans. Just a bunch of grunting noise while they bit into their food like wild animals.
"Nappa, when they're all asleep, let's spar, you and me. We have to keep push each other to our limits." Nappa looked confused.
Bardock sighed. "In other words, you have to stop being a lazy ass."
An hour passed, and all the Saiyans were asleep, except Vegeta and Arti, they were doing something else.
"RAAAAH" Nappa shouts as Bardock punches him in the face. "YOU LOW CLASS!" He goes to punch Bardock, but punches nothing but air as he appears behind him, kicking him in the side and sending him flying.
"Come on, Nappa! You can do better!"
Nappa starts charging, electricity coming around him. "Let's see how you handle my full power!" He rushed Bardock, punching him in the face, but it didn't take too long for his dazed state to wear off as Nappa was on the other end of a variety of punches and kicks.
"Err! BOMBER XD!" Nappa yells while breaking off from Bardock, and sends his ki attack towards Bardock. Bardock puts his arms in an "X" like fashion, blocking the attack.
"Nappa, you coulda' used that as a distraction and attacked me from behind." Bardock knowingly states. He smirks. "Care to continue?"
"FINAL REVENGER!" Bardock used the same attack he used on Dodoria's men. He shot Nappa with a blast of KI into the sky, then flew behind him, knocking him to the ground. Bardock smirked, then that smirk changed into a scowl.
'Errgh, not again!' He thought angrily. A vision appeared, of a mud ball planet. But something made it special, orange orbs that had stars on them. They seemed magical, something important. And they needed it.
"The planet you seek is called Earth, and yo-" the voice in his head was cut short, as Nappa slammed his fist into Bardock's cheek and knocked him out cold.
He awoke the next day to people talking.
"He's still out cold? Nappa, what'd you do to my Father?" Raditz asked questioningly.
"We sparred, and I really have no idea how I knoc-" Nappa stopped when Bardock sat up and said something.
"We're going to a planet called Earth. Get in the space pods, we're going right away."
Vegeta laughed. "Bardock, you don't make the orders around here." He said cockily. "And even if you did, what's so important about Earth?"
Kakarot spoke up. "Yeah, what's so important about E-arth, Father?" Raditz scowled and pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Just let me explain. I had a vision, Earth has these magical orbs, and something about them seems very important. We need to check it out."
Vegeta stood there, glaring at Bardock in thought. "Alright, Bardock, but next time you think you need to tell us something, you tell me first." Bardock nodded. "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."
Everybody got into their space pods, a miracle they still worked after all these years, and set off to Planet XR31H. But they won't expect a battle going on when they land on the weak, mud ball.
