Chap 4
We flew low over the water, heading toward the high power level. As we got closer we slowed down and started to run along the ground, having changed our minds about letting them know we were there so soon. When we reached the final ridge overlooking the vilage that they were currently menacing, We dropped to our bellies and crawled to the edge. We looked over and took in the scene that was being played out below.
Immediatly I realized which one was Frieza, he was sitting in some type of hoverchair, looking neither male nor female. On his right side, sat a rather large mass of pink goo. I had small nubbles on its head and wore the same type of device that the two unfotunate creatures who met up with the humans wore. He was also wearing the same type of uniform, as were all of the non-nameks present.
I gasped when I noticed what the pink one was carrying under each arm. He held two of the dragonballs! On Frieza's right stood a rather good looking creature. He had long green hair, braided down his back, and across his forehead he wore an emerald jewel. He also had two dragonballs.
Frieza himself held my attention the most, he was light purple, and had black horns proturding from his head. I could see the tip of a tail peeking out from under him. He was rather short, but stature had no meaning in battle.
In the doorway of one of the houses, the village elder stood with two small children. Freiza asked about the dragonball, and yet the elder played dumb, pretending he knew nothing of a dragonball. I looked at Frieza and could tell he was getting annoyed, which could lead to the demise of the elder. I look at Seab and Neget, who both nodded to me.
All three of us jumped and into the village, kicking two of Frieza's henchman out of the way. Everybody turned to stare at us, including Frieza. I returned his glare as only a true namekian can, tenfold. He smiled casually, and continued to say nothing. I stepped forward still looking directly at Frieza.
"We heard a rumor that there was some monster going from village to village and stealing the dragonballs." I said, "We here to stop you Frieza!"
Frieza's smile widened at the sound of his own name. "Have my exploits reached as far as this pitiful excuse for a planet? I am flattered."
My glare deepened further, "The only thing that reaches this far is tyranny. And this is where it ends.."
Continuing to smile Frieza looked over at the pink one. "Well Dodoria?" Dodoria reached up and pressed a button on the thing attached to his eye. He read the small readout and began to laugh. "Only one thousand each!" He said smugly. Freiza looked toward his men and then waved a hand at us.
All at once the ten men in the village leaped at us. We returned the favor, meeting them halfway, and making them regret it. The first creature I crushed his neck, while the second was merely knocked unconscous by my elbow to the temple. I turned swiftly and planted the toe of my boot into the throat of an oncoming warrior. I looked to the left to see Seab take down three of them, as well as Neget. There was one standing in the center of us all. His spinal shattered as three kicks met his neck, spine, and tailbone.
Looking around I saw that only Frieza and his two dragonblall carriers were still left. Frieza shot a glare at Dodoria, who reached up and clicked his reader again. "I-I-I don't get it! This thing must be broken," He stammered, "Now it says that there all over three thousand!"
"Well don't you think you had better take care of them?" Frieza said softly.
"Whats the matter Frieza, afraid to take us yourself?" I leered, much to the amusment of Seab and Neget. Frieza smiled again, "No thanks. It would be like swatting flys with a Buick."
"A what?" I said confused. "Nothing," He replied while sighing.
As I tried to figure out what Frieza meant I saw the village elder pushing the children away from him. Before I could stop him he fired a small shot of Ki at Dodoria. I swore as he missed and only hit the reader that he was wearing, destroying it. I heard Seab shout "No" but by then the elder had jumped into the air. He fired to more shots, one hitting one Frieza's dead henchman in the head and the other destroying one of the readers that lay on the ground. I then realized what he was doing. Looking around I saw that he had just destroyed the last three readers. He must have realized as I did that they were using those to find the dragonballs. So his first shot hadn't missed.
Dodoria turned to glare at the elder. I realized that he was going to attack him. He leaped at him, flying full speed toward the elder. However before he reached him Frieza stopped him, suggesting that perhaps he deal with us "younger" warriors. Dodoria turned and smiled. He readjusted his path and was flying toward us, when he came within range he flew behind us kicking Seab and Neget as he passed. They both fell to the ground and didn't move. I looked at Dodoria who grinned and flew toward me. His fists outstretched.
When he was ten feet from me brought my hands together in front of me and spread them vertically. Between my hands stretched an ultrathin line of ki invisible to the naked eye. I pumped my full power into it as Dodoria reached me. As his fists connected with my chest, his skull connected with the blade of ki, cleanly slicing his head, and part of his chest in half. His momentum continued to push me backwards and finaly to the ground, with his enormous girth collapsed on top of me, gray blood gushed out all over me. His body twitched a few times and then lay still.
I reached up and pushed his body off of me, not with a little difficulty. I stood up and looked toward Frieza, whose face was a mixture of emotions, mainly suprise and anger. The green one had the same type of expression. I dropped back into my fighting stance, ready for the next challenge.
