Hey guys! Sorry this chapter took so long, it's just that I haven't gotten much inspiration lately, and add the fact that my main project 'Omni King' is currently my top priority right now.

P.S. GET TO WORK ON VOTING! (Details at the end)

Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ, never had, never will. Akira Toriyama owns it.

Chapter 3: Frieza's Invasion

Gine groaned as she slowly opened her eyes, she looked around and noticed she was in her room with Raditz and...Bardock look-a-likes?

"I-I wasn't dreaming?" Gine asked, Bardock and Goku both shook their heads and helped Gine sit up.

"Nope! Sorry about the scare, and as for how? Well let's talk over dinner." Goku grinned as everyone stood up and walked to the dining room. After a few minutes, HUGE proportions of food were laid out on the table, all of it was unknown to Goku, but he devoured it anyway.

"So…Kakarot." Bardock turned to Goku and swallowed some Saiyan chicken. "The planet you were sent to, Earth, was it? Has there been any threats?" it was Goten who nodded.

"Yeah, quite a few, though a few are really good now!"

Goku then began to recount the tale of when he was sent to Earth and found by Grandpa Gohan, how him and his friends defeated King Piccolo, Raditz (making Kid Raditz flinch), the Androids, Broly, Turles, Cell, Frieza, how he became Super Saiyan and attained his other forms. Goten told them about all his friends, including Beerus. Goku also told them about the Tournament of Power and how the losers get their universe erased.

"I was lucky to be friends with the Omni-King, otherwise we would have been erased for sure!" Goku recounted as he sheepishly grinned.

"I see…" Bardock was awestruck, his son, with a power level of two had surpassed him!

"I wanna be just like you one day!" Raditz exclaimed. Gine and Goku laughed and Bardock smirked.

"Well… keep up with your training and you might reach your goal."

After eating humongous portions of meat and vegetables from other planets, the family was stuffed. Goten slept on Goku's lap, the latter sitting on the couch as he brushed Goten's hair away from his face sitting next to his father.

'Huh, that's such a weird thing to say.' admittedly, Goku felt awkward being around his parents, and who could blame him? The only parental figure he knew as a kid was Grandpa Gohan, yet he was only referred as to 'Goku' or 'my boy', and he only referred to him as 'Grandpa' not dad. But… having a family again, it was something new.

"So, whaddya say, Kakarot?"

Goku was snapped out of his thoughts as he turned to Bardock who was fixing his scouter.

"Huh?"

"You know, you, me and Raditz go and train? I want to see how much my future son has grown."

This immediately made Goku grin with glee.

"Alright! Let's do it!"

"Prince huh…?"

Vegeta was sitting on the grass in the castle gardens, adorning his royal armour, something his father forced him into. The Saiyan was thinking about his childhood into adulthood, how he was so obsessed with being the one to become a Super Saiyan and reign as a prince. To think the title actually means something now…

'Look… you've always talked about the Saiyan race, how we're the last of a mighty people. Well it's time we accept we're starting a new race, one that can be just as strong, and just as proud. But not if we're caught on in so much of our own… birth rights, to see what's right in front of us! We've lost our old race Vegeta! Let's not lose this one too!'

Those words have always echoed in Vegeta's mind since Goku said them trying to persuade him to put on the blasted Potara earrings. Those words made him face the truth… his race was gone, his kingdom was gone, his title of prince… was gone.

But now he realised he could help his people, and though it would never affect his own timeline, he could change this one. He had to make things right, and stand up to Frieza once and for all.

"How are you doing, son?"

Vegeta whipped his head around to see his mother, Queen Saep. The prince smirked. Unlike most Saiyans, his mother had a sort of… calming and kind aura radiating from her. Queen Saep was always the one who cared for her and Tarble… in the few years that he knew him, but she cared for both her sons equally and with no contempt or disappointment.

"I'm fine mother. I'm actually surprised you could find me here." Vegeta smirked.

"Well… it was't that hard." Saep sat down besider her son as she wrapped her tail and arm around him. Vegeta's body flinched at the gesture, but accepted it none the less., "We always sat here together after your father trained you and you were taking a small break before heading off to kill Saibamen."

'We talked a lot here." said Vegeta, his expression softening as he took in his mother's warmth, knowing that the next two weeks would be his last time to see his parents and his race.

"You've grown so much. and it seems you made a good friend. Kakarot was it?" Saep winked, talking about the weird and wonderful Goku. Vegeta scoffed, "Please, mother, Kakarot and I aren't friends, we're rivals and the thought of even thinking of that clown as a friend.. I would rather drown myself into a pool of worms than say that."

Queen Saep burst into a fit of laughter, which made Vegeta rather embarrassed, amd he turned away to hide his red face.

"Regardless of what you think of him, you can at least tolerate him, right?" Saep said after recovering from her giggles. Vegeta nodded, not answering with words.

"I noticed the fight you had with Kakarot on video. That was quite the spectacle I must say."

"I still lost. And I'm no where near what that clown has. He's reached a level not even the Gods of Destruction can attain, and I heard from Whis that he might be on equal footing with him, while I'm being left in the dust. I know you're disappointed."

"My son, I know how much surpassing Kakarot means to you, I understand." Saep said calmly, "But you musn't believe I am disappointed in you, in fact, both me and your father are very proud at your level of power we never thought was possible."

"F-Father thinks that?"

Saep nodded, "No matter what happens, even if someone is stronger than you, if you continue to push yourself and become stronger, we will always love you."

Queen Saep then embraced his future son, which shocked him greatly. He didn't know how to respond to this, but nevertheless, he smiled for the first time since coming here and returned the gesture. They both lasted for a couple of minutes before releasing the hug. Queen Saep noticed his son's eyes were drooping, probably tired from the immense training he did thirty minutes ago and the battle with his rival before that.

'Vegeta, you look exhausted, you should go upstairs and rest."

"I'm fine mother." Vegeta said, mentally slapping himself for the lack of energy in his voice. The Queen of All Saiyans over dramatically placed her hands on her hips and huffed, but then smiled as he placed his son's head on her chest.

"Mother what are you-"

Saep shushed him and gently brushed his hair, making the prince calm and relaxed, something he never did often. Vegeta then recognised something his mother was humming, it was a lullaby that always made him feel comforted and welcomed when he was a very young boy, and, slowly but surely, he let fatigue take over.

"Good, rest my son… you need it."

Queen Saep smiled as she grabbed a pillow from behind her back and placed in on her lap, carefully placing Vegeta's head onto it. The prince was too tired to protest and took comfort in the pillow and his mother, and the last thing he felt before falling asleep was his mother's tail placing itself onto his arm.

"Hey dad, grandpa wants to- whuh?"

Saep raised a finger to her mouth as Trunks walked in, suddenly noticing his sleeping father and his grandmother together. It was a curious sight, seeing the prince asleep.

"Let him rest, Trunks. He's had a long day."

Frieza's Ship (Two days later...)

Frieza looked out the window of his ship as he gazed into the infinite void known as space, his tail hanging over his chair loosely. The Arcosian gave a harsh scowl before turning away and rising from his seat.

"Filthy monkeys..." he muttered before walking towards the exit when his scouter suddenly beeped to life.

"What do you want?" Frieza growled.

"Lord Frieza, King Cold and Lord Cooler wish to speak with you."

"Fine, I'll be on my way."

Frieza hastily walked towards the communications hub of the ship where King Cold and Cooler were waiting on the screen.

"Hello, my son. It's been a while." said King Cold. Frieza scoweld internally, he hated his father sometimes when he'd call unexpectedly, but now that his brother had joined the chat it was indescribably annoying.

"What business do you have with me? I better hope it's not one of those confounded meetings with the Beastials. I never seem to understand them or they're methods."

"Just like my brother to jump to conclusions." said Cooler snidely, making a vein pop out of Frieza's head, "We just got news of those Saiyans that are undoubtedly very strong." King Cold nodded.

"Yes and we want to know if you need some... assistance."

"Pff! Please, assistance? From you and Cooler, that is the worst joke I have ever heard." Frieza laughed, his tail swinging behind him. Cooler turned serious.

"This is important, brother! If those baboons are stronger than us they could overthrow our empires!"

Frieza immediately stopped laughing and looked Cooler straight in the eye. He sighed, "Very well, you may accompany me, in any case, those monkeys won't stand a chance. How long until you arrive?"

"Look out the window." King Cold replied. Frieza complied and looked out a small window and saw two ships approaching Planet Vegeta.

"Hohoho, let the game... begin."

Vegeta and Goku were training in the wastelands of the planet, with Goten and Trunks not that far away, when suddenly they all sensed incredible energies.

"It's Frieza!" Goku exclaimed. Vegeta nodded.

"It seems he's not alone, King Cold and Cooler are there as well."

"King Cold? Cooler?" Goten and Trunks asked.

"King Cold is Frieza's dad and Cooler is Frieza's brother." Goku explained, making the duo 'oh' in reply.

"C'mon Kakarot! The more time we waste, the less time we have of saving our home world!"

Goku nodded and blasted off alongside the others, ready to fight the rather easy threat ahead of them. They all flew up into the upper atmosphere, seeing Frieza, King Cold and Cooler standing-or rather, floating, together.

"I'll take Cooler, Kakarot, you take care of Frieza. The kids can handle King Cold."

"But I thought you wanted to take care Frieza?" Goku asked, confused at the lineup. Vegeta smirked.

"You were always the one to defeat Frieza, I doubt that's going to change."

Goku grinned and then turned to the boys.

"Whatever happens, don't let King Cold transform. I don't know how strong he is at his final form, and I doubt it would change anythin', but I ain't taking any chances."

"You got it dad!" Goten grinned and looked at Trunks, who also grinned, and they both got into poses.

"Fuuuu... sioooon. HAA!"

A great flash of light occured and there stood Gotenks, the fusion of Goten and Trunks.

"Da da na nah! No need to fear! Super Gotenks is here!" Gotenks exclaimed while dabbing.

"Don't get cocky!" Vegeta scolded, "Kill him immediately, no stalling! Got it?!"

"Y-Yes sir!" Gotenks complied. No one wanted to mess with Vegeta.

The trio turned to the Arcosian famiily, who were impatiently waiting for them.

"Are you done?" Cooler said annoyed.

"You know? Let's really scare 'em." Goku smirked, his Saiyan side showing. Vegeta looked at his rival, at first shocked at this side of him, but then smirked.

"Now that's what I like to hear." Gotenks screamed.

"I like this side of you, Kakarot."

The Saiyans all screamed their heads off, a massive light show of yellow, silver, and blue radiating across the area. When the light faded, the Arcosians went bug-eyed at the sight of Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks, Super Saiyan Royal Blue Vegeta and Ultra Instinct Goku, who's hair had changed to silver (what he used back then was the Omen).

"Wh-What?" Frieza said in fear, stepping back, Cooler and King Cold did the same. Cooler stuttered.

"I-Incredible power is surging through them, I can feel it!"

Meanwhile, Saiyan spectators were watching from behind, and two fathers were pleased at the scared looks of their tormentors.

"Skip the plan, let's just finish this." Vegeta grunted, preparing his signature move, Gotenks and Goku following.

"Ka... me... ha... me..."

"Final..."

"God..."

The Saiyans thrusted their beams forward, ready to destroy the tyrants once and for all.

"HAA!"

"FLASH!"

"BREAKER!"

The beams combined and the Arcosians were swept up into its' light and was sent towards a very specific star.

All the planet went silent, trying to comprehend what happened. The trio reverted back to their original forms, Gotenks still hadn't defused. Suddenly, all the Saiyans cheered and applauded the group for their effort in defeating the people who had enslaved them for so long...

"Way to go Prince Vegeta!"

"You three were amazing!"

"That was incredible!"

"Are you really that Kakarot kid?!"

The future warriors smiled, knowing that a new age for the Saiyans had begun, the age of freedom.

Yes I know it feels rushed and Vegeta felt WAAYYY too OOC with his mom, but this is really just a side project and I won't really put too much effort into it. Btw, one thing. Queen Saep (Peas backwards) is entirely my own.

Another thing I would like to mention is the poll for the 'Omni-King' and yes I'm putting it in another story to be able to get better results. So... who would you like to be in the story first?

Cooler? (Not metal)

Broly? (The non canon version)

Buu? (Kid one)

The one with the most votes will fight the heroes first, and then the others will follow. I highly suggest heading to that story to get a better idea on what it's about.

Anyways, see you in the next chapter!
