Dragon Ball Z: I'm Just Saiyan...
Dragonball Z
Chapter 8
Planet Meat
The gang of saiyans all looked solemn on the way back. Because Goku and Vegeta were "elites" according to the scouter, they didn't bother to question them. When they arrived at planet Vegeta, a doctor came to greet them, notifying them that they were to go to planet Meat.
"It's a direct order from Frieza", the doctor said simply. He returned to consulting his notebook, leaving the surprised group just standing there.
"Well, it's not like we got injured on the previous mission", Toma suggested offhandedly. Vegeta narrowed his eyes, seeming to look off in the distance.
"What is it, 'Geta?" Goku asked, noticing his rival's concentrating face.
"If the mission on planet Kanassa would have went as planned, Bardock's unit would not have been completely rejuvanated by the time they would reach planet Meat", Vegeta said, quietly enough for only Goku to hear.
"So, they get there a little tired?" Goku asked naively. Vegeta looked at him stupidly before snarling.
"You dolt. It means they still would have been injured!" Vegeta said tiredly. Goku chuckled and nodded. Vegeta was sensing an ambush in this "mission".
Without preamble, everyone left for planet meat. Once there, Bardock and Toma flew to what looked like a stronghold.
"Alright, this looks like this would be their base of opera-" Toma was blindsided by a punch that sent him careening towards a far cliff. Goku and Vegeta were hidden by nearby pillars, watching the scene unfold.
"Dodoria! What is this!" Bardock demanded angrily. The pink alien now revealed to be Dodoria stepped forward, a smug smile on his face. Flanked by him were other alien guards from Frieza's army.
"What do you think?" Dodoria asked sarcastically, the smirk never leaving his face. Toma quickly flew back from where he was sucker-punched, nursing a wound on his cheek.
Shugesh decided he had enough and charged directly at Dodoria, a torrent of wind trailing behind him. However, before he could connect with his punch, Dodoria countered with a cross arm block and landed a headbutt on Shugesh's forehead.
"Urgh!" Shugesh cried as the force of of the headbutt caused him to crash to the ground. Vegeta decided he had enough and decided to step out.
"If it isn't Dodoria. My pink little friend", Vegeta said sarcastially, catching Dodoria's attention. Dodoria and the elite Frieza guards behind him were exchanging confused glances.
"I guess you don't recognize me then", Vegeta stated as he removed his headband, which well disguised his hairstyle. As the headband was removed, his hair instantly stood on end like an angry flame, as though relieved to finally have the headband off.
"K-King Vegeta?" Dodoria said aloud, trying to figure out what he was seeing. He looked like him, and sounded like him, but at the same time didn't sound like him.
Vegeta realized that Dodoria thought he was King Vegeta. Even the rest of the group (minus Kakarot), were exchanging shocked glances. Vegeta decided to play along.
Cuz that's how he rolls.
"So you thought you could kill my men, huh Dodoria. You thought you could decieve the King of Saiyans!" Vegeta demanded, slipping well into the role of royalty. He didn't realize how good it felt to say King of Saiyans. Dodoria gasped and took a step back. His eyes showed denial and fear at the same time. Even the men behind him wore shocked expressions, staying clear of Vegeta and Dodoria.
Vegeta took a menacing step forward. Dodoria gasped and stepped back quickly, almost tripping over himself. He regained his bearings quickly, putting on a show of bravado.
"Heh, you don't scare me, you monkey", Dodoria said, laughing nervously. Vegeta smirked, raising his hand, his index and middle finger pointed out. Dodoria scowled before launching himself at Vegeta. Vegeta plucked the air and...
"AAHHH!" Dodoria shrieked as he blown back a distance of easily 30 miles. Everyone escept Goku had shocked expressions on their faces with dropped jaws. Vegeta once again smirked before dropping his hand. He glanced around noticing that everyine wasw staring at him.
"What?" Vegeta demanded. They continued to stare at him, until Toma decided to speak.
"You're the king..." Toma said, as though he were just coming to grips with the revelation.
"Well, duh! How else do you think I was able to crush him so easily?" Vegeta responded a little too defensively. He was trying his best to make them think he was the king at the moment. Bardock and his crew continued to stare until they all shrugged simultaneously, before quickly going back to their ships.
"We won't be able to get their in time by just ships alone", Vegeta said solemnly. Goku looked at each person before him before an idea came to him.
"I have an idea, Instant Transmission. Everyone grap a hold of someone, with one of you holding my shoulder", Goku ordered. Vegeta held Goku's shoulder, with everyone else forming a line. Before you could say 'Kakarot', they were gone.
In a flash, they appeared inside a large spaceship.
"My lord, we will reach the planet called earth in their 25 earth years," said a henchman as he worked the controls of the main cockpit.
VIIN
"Oops! Wrong place. Everyone, don't let go, wrong stop!" said an excited voice. As quickly as the group arrived, they were gone.
"What in creation was that!" yelled a yellowish brown midget who quickly flew into the cockpit from a rear corridor. The pilot jumped in surprise because he had not seen the split second event that unfolded before him.
"I-I don't know, sir!" The pilot quickly said, saluting. The mysterious midget, an "M" adorned on his belt, slowly retreated back to his chamber, grumbling.
