Inner Saiyan

Yajirobe POV

Damn Krillen. Leaving me alone with these two. All this grass makes the whole place look the same, even at night. Makes me hungry. Ugggg. I lifted Goku onto the back of my bright red hovercar and Three-eyes sat in the front, after a Senzu, of course. I'm not lifting the two of them, one is enough work.

"Yajirobe, what happened?" hump. Morons still dizzy from the beating he took. I directed the car into the direction of Korin's place and drove. I started picking my nose with my pinky, one hand on the wheel.

"Well, all I know is guy crashed into the tower, Korin read his mind, saw the problem, and sent me here at 4:00 in the morning, to take care of you idiots" I replied as I tried to flick the booger off my finger with my thumb.

"WAIT! That stranger! What was he wearing?!"

"I dunno, some sort of armor, but Korin changed him to like, a black Gi or something and an eye patch that was like dark blue. He had a tail too, but he looked all trashed and stuff." Finally, the tower, I need something to eat, I'm tired, plus this talk was getting way too awkward. I finished picking my nose, and parked the car, right next the staircase.


Tienshinhan POV

I hopped out of the car and was just about to help Goku out of the hover car, when I felt the power. THAT power. I rushed inside of the tower, only to find an empty room, with the stranger's power seemingly everywhere, as well as Korin's.


Tarble

"Now let's start from the beginning. Who are you?" I gulped before answering,

"My name is Tarble, the second prince of all Saiyans and heir to the throne." Korin nodded before asking;

"You keep mentioning Saiyans, and I saw you refer to Goku as one as well, just what is a Saiyan?"

"Well…the Saiyans are the universes greatest race of warriors, but the Saiyans are barbaric, the Saiyans work for an intergalactic war lord, who owns the planets we raid and pillage" he seemed unnerved, yet I think I heard him gulp.

"So, you were sent here to pillage our planet?"

"Oh! No, I am under very special circumstances… I am not a pillager"

"Oh, well, we should probably get out of here." He pointed to the door and explained the concept of this room. Once my confusion was over, I nodded, not following at all.

"Alright Tarble, to get out of here, you are going to need to hold on to me" I awkwardly put my hand on his head as if petting him.

"Alright, just keep straight and DO NOT stray away." He said with such seriousness. I nodded. With a quick "I'm ready" we walked through the door frame, into the completely white 'hallway' of sorts, that I refuse to believe is reality. Korin walked on right ahead, as if nothing was affecting him, while I was mesmerized by the…nothingness. It was just a dome-like walkway that continued to go on in a forward path, yet I could just make out the silhouette of another door, a 5 minute walk maybe. 2 minute fly. I turned my attention back to Korin, whose face remained determined, almost as if he was putting his hardest effort in something. My gloved hand was still on his slightly large head. I suppose I can let go now. The door is not that far, I can see it in perfect detail now. I gingerly lifted my palm, retreating it. Then nana second I was no longer in contact with Korin, the long, dome hallway opened up, it expanded to a size so large, the circumference might have been infinity. Maybe even more. This caught me off guard, causing my footing to become unbalanced and resulted in me falling. My eyes never left Korin as he disappeared and turned into mist.

"Korin!" I shouted, as I stood up and ran in his general direction.

"Korin! Korin! Kor-uff…" I fell again. Big Brother would laugh if he knew I fell twice in one day. So would all the other Saiyans. I groaned as I hurried to stand up, only to be met with a very upset kitty, with crossed arms, staff in tail, standing right in front of me.

"I-"I bowed my head, "I apologize…" he seemed slightly satisfied, with yet another quick nod, we continued our walk. Once we were in front of the brown, wooden looking door, I had to ask.

"Err… Korin, when I let go-"

"You saw the small path turn into a room with absolute emptiness, were caught by surprise, tripped, saw me still walking, go from sight, you tried to chase me, and you tripped again? And now you want to know why that is? To answer your question Tarble, I was focusing on dimming the 'lighting' if you will, so it would be easier for you to not get lost. Now, shall we?" he said as he tapped to door with his, longer-than-his-own-body-staff, which he now held in his hand. Or paw? While the other was behind his furry back

The door creaked open as the blinding light filled my vision.


The duo suddenly appeared, literally just appeared out of thin air, behind a startled Tien, who had just entered the tower, searching frantically.

"Relax; all is right, for now at least. Tien! Where is Goku?"

"KORIN!" he struck a fighting stance, as he spun around, and jumped backwards "G-get away from him! He's trouble! Goku-"

"-Is in a critical state, and is need of senzu. Don't worry; nothing is going astray so far. Tarble, this is Tien." He faced Tien who just stood there, dumbstruck at the casual introduction. "Tien was just going to save Goku, by giving him a senzu bean, then telling him I need to see him!" he implied. Tarble almost flinched at the look Tien was giving to him, as he did what he was told.

Tien ran to Yajirobe, who was in the same position, having barely moved from his position in the driver's seat. The morning sun had just awakened.

"Senzu NOW!"

"Alright, jeez. Who put poison in your eye drops?" he said as he threw the bean with wondrous healing properties. Tien caught it and ran to Goku, who was on the brink of death. "c'mon, c'mon!" he shouted as the bean was slowly and painfully swallowed.


Goku POV

Oww. My head. Did Chi Chi hit me with her frying pan again? Wait, all I remember is playing with Gohan, bringing him hom-… Chi Chi is going to KILL me! Then, rushing over to some place, where I…. completely and utterly show no mercy against Piccolo as I brutally and graphically destroy any life or will inside him. Oh Kami! I killed Piccolo! Wait-Kami! Is I killed Piccolo then- I killed Kami too. No... But where did that power come from? All I know is that there was a Stranger. THE STRANGER! While I was in my Piccolo-killing mode, I had a chance to feel his energy. It was amazing! Unlike anything I've ever felt, so large and powerful! But guessing by the huge power increase I just got, I think could take him, maybe even fight on equal terms. I jumped out the red car, and gave my classic son smile to Tien, who hid his own. His face quickly grew to a serious one. He pointed to the entrance way to Korin's tower.

"Someone he wants you to meet" he spoke. I nodded and rushed inside, only to find Korin waiting for me with the strong guy by his side, he was wearing a blue machine or something, and a dark, black version of my average clothes. It looks good…but doesn't suit him

"You! You made me kill Piccolo! I don't know how, but I know it was you!"

"I know. I am so very sorry for your friend. But he was attacking me-"Tarble's tail released his waist and pointed straight up, aligning itself with Tarble's perfect posture.

"Even if he was, there is no reason for you to do…whatever you did to him! You are twice as strong as him! You could've knocked him out!"

"Just because I have the strength, doesn't mean I am able to use it to mortally wound others, even putting them unconscious. I made sure that you were back to normal before you seriously harmed any of the three-"Tarble's tail began snapping and fluffing.

"Three?"

"Tien, The monk and the scared face one"

"Krillen? Yamcha? Where are they?! No why would I ever-"

"you weren't yourself Goku. I don't know about those two. Krillen, I thought I sensed at Kami's. But Yamcha, nothing. All I know is Piccolo begins to harass Tarble" the motions to me "You show up all wild and barbaric, defeat Piccolo, those three show up and Tarble leaves." I want to get Tien's intake on this later. But for now-"

"You left when you could've defended them!" I narrowed my eyes, "Krillen…Yamcha…" suddenly a memory of me cooking Yamcha to a crisp came to me, along with some maniacs laugh.

"Yamcha is dead, Krillen…I'm not so sure of" I suddenly snapped. I am angry. Not at Piccolo, not even at Tarble. At myself. And I knew this, even as I charged my Ki and attempted to punch Tarble in his Blue machine colored eye.

Tarble, even if he hated fighting and killing, was a Saiyan nonetheless. His reflexes were above average by human standards, as were his abilities. So, as he raised his forearm and blocked the fist, his blood could not help but pound with the idea of testing his abilities. He rocketed out the room and outside, until he was in open air, the smell of a new morning reaching his nostrils. He stopped and turned around, striking a fighting pose, waiting for the challenger. Goku the Saiyan. Looks like his search to find his inner Saiyan was about to begin.
