I'm trying to work out a lot of the inconsistencies of cannon power levels. Things like…How the hell did Gohan go from less than 45,000 against Racoome to 200,000 against Frieza? I'm going to try, but if I make a few mistakes let me know and if I can fix it, I will.
Chapter 9: The Ginyu Force vs. Earthling/ Saiyan Alliance Part 1
"Gah! 3,000!"
Goku did a flip and dropped down from the bar he was doing pull-ups from, breathing heavily.
"Computer, how long until I land?"
Time to destination; Planet Namek is approximately: 7 hours and 42 minutes
A frown appeared on Goku's face.
"I don't have time to be playing around! Computer, increase gravity to 100!"
Please confirm, increase gravity from 85 to 100
Goku's determined frown never faltered.
"Confirm!"
"How much further Vegeta? I can feel them! Their landing any minute now."
Vegeta ignored Gohan's question, opting for focusing on getting to his Dragonballs.
'I need immortality. Without it, we're all dead!'
Suddenly, the sound of burning caught all of their attention.
Frieza stood with a smirk on his face as he saw 5 burning pods heading for 20 yards away from his ship.
"It is about time they arrived."
BOOOOM!
The five pods impacted the planet at the same time, making one large crater.
Frieza stood, waiting patiently.
"Guldo!"
A short green alien with four eyes, wearing Saiyan armor jumped out of the crater, he landed standing up, with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Racoome!"
A mountain of muscle was the next to jump from the crater, he landed right behind Guldo in a pose that had him leaning back and point out towards the sky. He looked much like a human with red hair.
"Burter!"
In a blur, a blue alien appeared next to Racoome, while just as tall, this one was more lithe. He stood on one foot with his arms out to the side.
"Jeice!"
From the center of them all, a red alien with long white hair jumped up, his fist in an uppercut.
"Captain Ginyu!"
In an impressively acrobatic display, a purple alien with horns flipped until he landed on a single knee in front of the others.
Suddenly, all five chorused.
"We are… The Ginyu Force!"
Even Frieza had a sweat-drop on his face over his Elites' ridiculous poses.
"Yes… anyways. Do you have the scouters?"
The purple alien who was Captain Ginyu stood.
"Of course Lord Frieza. Guldo!"
"Right away captain!"
Without a second delay, Guldo shot over to his pod and grabbed a box full of scouters.
He dropped to a knee in front of Frieza, holding the scouters in the air.
"Here you are my lord. 25 scouters, just like you requested."
Frieza didn't even acknowledge Guldo more than taking the box from him.
"Ginyu!"
The purple captain was in front of Frieza in the blink of an eye.
"There is a group of people on this planet causing trouble for me. They have killed Dadoria, and I suspect Zarbon as well. I want them dead. However, I need Vegeta alive. He knows the locations of my Dragonballs. Understand?"
The purple captain stood and gave a stiff salute.
"My Lord, do you want us to search for the Dragonball?"
An irritated expression crossed Frieza's face.
"Did I ask you to find me the Dragonballs?"
A bead of sweat fell down Ginyu's forehead.
"You can count on us, my Lord! Vegeta will be in your custody soon. However, what are our instructions for if we come across the Dragonballs?"
Frieza seemed to be in thought for a few minutes.
"If you come across them, bring them to the ship. However, that is not your mission."
"Roger that Lord Frieza! Men! Scout!"
In unison, all four men began pressing buttons on their scouters, each began beeping at the same time.
The four began speaking in chorus.
"Four power levels, 20 minutes to the East, traveling away from us!"
The captain turned back to Frieza.
"By your leave."
Frieza waved him off, and the five were gone.
The newly formed alliance finally landed in a clearing. Krillen looked to Vegeta in question.
"What's going on?"
Just as Vegeta was about to open his mouth, another voice cut him off.
"Well well well. Who would have thought…Vegeta got himself a posse."
"Hehe, good one Captain. I never thought Vegeta would work with anyone but a Saiyan."
Vegeta turned his head, glaring up at the five figures in the sky.
A growl came from deep within Vegeta's chest.
"I've dreamt for years of ripping out each and every one of your hearts!"
A hearty laugh came from the group as they slowly descended.
"I see you have three Dragonballs, where are the other four?"
The whole group glared at the purple captain now.
That only put a smirk on his face.
"Heh, angry, huh? I suppose I'll have to beat the answer out of you. So, whose first? Maybe killing a few allies will loosen your lips, Saiyan."
Without a second thought, Krillen stepped foreword, however as soon as he did, he regretted it.
Ginyu smirked when he saw the fear on Krillen's face.
"I think Guldo should take care of this fool."
Suddenly, Yamcha was next to Krillen, his arms crossed and a confident look in his eyes.
The captain hit a few buttons on his scouter and made a humming sound.
"Guldo shouldn't have a problem with both of them."
Guldo beamed in pride.
'The Captain is finally recognizing my strength. I can't let him down.'
Guldo walked foreword with as much confidence as his short body could radiate, until he was about twenty feet away from Krillen and Yamcha.
Vegeta turned to Gohan.
"I hope you're ready for this, Brat. Guldo's the weakest of the Ginyu Force."
Krillen and Yamcha both dropped into their fighting stances.
"We aren't giving up. We're getting our wish!"
All four of Guldo's eyes narrowed.
"Over my dead body."
Yamcha gave a smirk.
"Your proposal is acceptable."
Krillen and Yamcha both shot off, Yamcha left and Krillen right.
As the two circled the small alien, they were forced to dodge as hundreds of ki blasts were fired at both of them.
"That won't work! I can track you both."
Guldo was proving that his four eyes were for more than just show, they allowed him to see 360 degrees around him.
The short alien barely jumped over a leg sweep from Yamcha and deflected Krillen's fist, the two humans jumped back.
"Damn! We're faster and better than him, but it's like he can predict what we're going to do…"
A shout broke them from their conversation.
"The little turd is from a race of mentally powerful fighters. They were known for their psychic abilities. The most advanced members of their race could predict up to 3 seconds of the future! They can also stop time by holding their breath!"
Krillen and Yamcha turned to Vegeta with shocked expressions.
'Tell the future? Stop time? That's insane!'
The two humans locked eyes.
"So, we need to hit him with something that even if he can predict it, he can't dodge it."
Krillen gave a big smile.
"I got it!"
Krillen began whispering his plan to Yamcha, the taller man nodding along.
Guldo, meanwhile was getting impatient.
"Enough! Eliminator!"
A green ball of energy formed in Guldo's hand before shooting towards the two humans, who dodged, easily. The blast left quite the crater.
Once again, they separated, Krillen going high-left, Yamcha going low-right.
The two humans stopped, the two dropped into the same stance, with their hands cupped at their waist, a white ball of energy forming in both of their hands.
" . -Ha!"
The two released their blasts at the same time, but unfortunately, the green alien jumped over it with a crazy look on his face.
"Not good enough!"
Gohan's eyes widened when he saw that both, of their attacks, were heading straight for the other.
However, they both still wore smirks.
"HAAAAAAAAAAA!"
With a wave of their hands, the Kame-blasts actually turned around.
Guldo's eyes widened to comical proportions when he noticed that both blasts would hit him.
'There's no way I can survive that!'
The resulting explosion shook the whole area.
Even Vegeta was impressed.
"Good tactics. Take his advantage and turn it against him."
As the temporary alliance watched the cloud of dust, they expected to see Guldo's injured form floating. However, there was nothing.
"That was close."
All four turned to the voice, Guldo was with the other Ginyus, just talking away.
"Man, they almost had me."
Racoome nodded along.
"Yeah, no kidding. You better step it up, or the Captain's gonna kick you off the team."
Guldo nodded.
"Don't worry, I have these fools right where I want them…"
By this point, Krillen and Yamcha were losing their cool, with angry glares on their faces, the two charged, ready to decimate the little green alien.
"Mind Bind!"
Suddenly, a green glow surrounded both Krillen and Yamcha and the two stopped dead in their tracks.
"Hahaha! You're dead now! Nobody can escape my Mind Bind technique! Now, how should I kill you? I know, painfully!"
Without delay, the little green alien closed the distance to the two and began slamming them with every part of his body, causing only minimal damage, but it was still painful.
Meanwhile, Gohan was about to jump in, but Vegeta stopped him.
"If you attack him, then the others will attack also and we will die, this needs to be done slowly."
Though Gohan was reluctant, they were outnumbered 4 to 5.
Krillen and Yamcha could do nothing as blow after blow was rained all over their exposed bodies.
Both humans were desperately trying to come up with a way out, but could come up with nothing.
Meanwhile, the other members of the Ginyu Force were getting bored.
"Hurry up! If you don't end it soon, your off the force!"
That very moment, Yamcha felt a crack in the bonds holding him.
"Don't worry! Their as good as dead!"
Sweat was beginning to fall from the little green alien's face. The Mind Bind ate through his reserves quickly.
"Lets see how you like being impaled!"
With a gleam in his eyes, the same green glow that surrounded them, surrounded two trees before ripping them out of the ground, and sharpening the end to a point.
"Your dead! Mind Thrust!"
The two trees began flying through the air at impressive speed, their targets, Krillen's and Yamcha's hearts.
However, Yamcha wasn't paying any attention, he was busy.
'Come on… I almost have enough!'
The trees were inches away from impaling the two, when a smirk crossed Yamcha's face and his fingers twitched.
"Spirit Ball!"
A small ball of white energy rose up from behind a large boulder and hit Guldo in the back of the head, distracting him enough for Krillen and Yamcha to break their prisons.
The second the bonds were broken, Krillen and Yamcha twisted to avoid the flying trees.
Krillen turned to Yamcha with a shocked impression.
"How did you do that?"
Yamcha just smirked.
"He's not so smart. I could still control my ki. I used it to form a Spirit Ball behind that boulder and was able to move my fingers enough to aim it. Worked like a charm."
Even Vegeta was impressed with the man's tactics.
"Y-you j-jerk!"
Everyone looked over and saw Guldo, on his knees, with the back of his head bloody and burned.
Just as the small green alien got to his feet, a small purple ki blast impacted his head, vaporizing it.
The Earthling's eyes widened when the saw who sent the blast. It was Captain Ginyu, and he didn't look even slightly remorseful.
The purple captain turned to the rest of the Ginyu Force who didn't look surprised at all.
"Let that be a warning for you all. There is no room for weakness, in the Ginyu Force."
The other three were instantly in their poses.
"Yes, Captain!"
The large purple alien pressed a few buttons on his scouter.
"Racoome, why don't you see who is brave enough to fight you."
Before the mountain of a man could step foreword, his opponent was in front of him, his fist blazing with ki.
Vegeta's fist impacted the large man's face, sending him flying.
Captain Ginyu's eyes had widened.
"Man, Vegeta can raise his power level! Here, I thought he was just a weakling with a power level of 23,000."
Internally, the captain wore a smirk.
'He's pretty strong, but nobody can take a hit like Racoome.'
Before Racoome could recover, Vegeta appeared, slamming a double hammer-fist to the head, sending him to the ground.
Vegeta did an impressive flip and landed with his heel slamming Racoome's stomach, breaking pieces of his armor.
The mountain of a man coughed up a small amount of blood but had no time to recover.
Vegeta rolled backwards and onto his feet, but not before grabbing Racoome's shoulder pads and slamming him into the ground, forming a small crater.
Vegeta jumped and landed right on Racoome's back, his knee breaking the armor and Racoome let out a pained scream.
"I told you, you're dead!"
Vegeta grabbed the big man by the foot and threw him straight up into the air.
"I'll see you in Hell! Racoome!"
A giant ball of ki formed in Vegeta's hands, it was quickly sent after the still flying Racoome.
The mountain of a man could do nothing as the blast him his unprotected back.
BOOOOOM!
The entire sky was lit up purple as the blast exploded, Krillen and Yamcha were in awe, however, Gohan knew it wasn't over.
"Woah! He did it! Man, and he was worried!"
Krillen nodded along with Yamcha.
"Yeah, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm glad he's on our side!"
Gohan however, was focused on the cloud of dust in the sky.
Vegeta seemed to sense it too.
Jeice turned to Burter.
"Man, can you believe it? Vegeta and his little pals think that, that is enough to beat Racoome."
The large blue alien turned to Jeice.
"No kidding, but I have to say, I'm impressed. Last time we saw Vegeta, he couldn't even beat Guldo. Whatever, training he's doing, it's working."
As the two were talking, Captain Ginyu was having similar thoughts.
'Maybe I should have offered him Guldo's position when he fought the little bastard a few years ago. He obviously hasn't reached his full potential either.'
Slowly, the smoke cleared, what was revealed shocked everyone.
Racoome was standing, though his armor was completely destroyed, he was in his favorite pose, his left leg on the ground and his right out behind him, his torso was leaned over, his hands at his sides. His body formed a 'T'.
However, he didn't stay there long, the man was ready for battle and he wasn't even breathing heavy. Meanwhile, Vegeta had burned through a good portion of his energy and was really tired.
Everyone was shocked that Racoome hadn't taken more damage.
"That was very impressive Vegeta! Allow me to show you one of my favorites! Racoome Kick!"
Faster than Vegeta could react, Racoome closed the distance and nailed the Saiyan prince in the chin with his knee.
Vegeta flew for nearly 100 yards before recovering. All he could do was glare at the man, blood running down his chin.
Vegeta's blue and white aura surrounded him again.
"You're dead! HAAAAAA!"
Vegeta charged right at the giant, his fist cocked back.
The Earthlings watched with bated breath as the fight went back and forth.
Racoome ducked under a kick from Vegeta and tripped the Saiyan.
"Racoome Elbow!"
As Vegeta stood, Racoome's elbow sent him straight back down.
"I don't think so Vegeta!"
By this point, Vegeta was slow to stand, his armor was trash, broken everywhere and his head was bleeding profusely.
The Saiyan prince slowly got up. He got to his hands and knees and his whole body was shaking.
"Grrrr! How can he be so strong!?"
"Racoome Kick!"
Racoome's foot came up and impacted the Saiyan prince's ribs, a series of cracks sounded throughout the area, and Vegeta was sent skidding, straight into a large boulder.
The an explosion of dust flew from where he landed.
"Ha! Ha! Ha! Vegeta is nothing!"
Just as Racoome began building energy in his mouth, Captain Ginyu shouted.
"Stand down Racoome!"
The large man instantly aloud the energy to fade and turned to his leader.
"What is the matter Captain?"
Ginyu merely pointed, there, scattered around were the other four Dragonballs.
"What do you know… Frieza will be pleased."
Almost magically, the seven balls in the area floated up and around the Captain. They seemed to be orbiting him.
The Captain turned to Jeice and Burter.
"I'm sure you three can handle those two weaklings, a child and a half-dead Saiyan."
Jeice and Burter, both placed their right arm across their chest.
"You can count on us sir!"
Ginyu gave a nod before taking to the air.
He didn't make it 10 feet before Gohan appeared in front of him.
"You're not going anywhere!"
Just as Gohan was about to hit Ginyu, all Krillen and Yamcha saw was a blue blur and Gohan was sent to the ground, hard.
The captain smirked.
"If you can beat my men, you may just give me a challenge. Not likely though."
With his words said, he took to the sky.
The empty spot next to Jeice was once again, occupied by Burter.
The two smirked.
"Impressive huh? Burter here is the fastest in the galaxy. Even the captain isn't as fast as him."
Racoome jumped in the middle of the conversation.
"I want to fight the little one!"
Jeice almost seemed offended.
"What!? You just got to fight!"
Racoome glared at his partner.
"But Vegeta was weak!"
A hacking noise could be heard.
"You talk like you already beat me! HAAA"
Vegeta took off, right for Racoome, vengeance in his eyes.
He landed a kick right to Racoome's face, the only result was that Racoome was now looking away.
"No. Body. Treats. The. Saiyan. Prince. Like. That!"
Each word was accented by either a punch or kick. When he finished, Vegeta could barely even raise his hands and Racoome hadn't taken any more damage.
"I'm going to finish this now…Racoome Headbutt!"
Before Vegeta could react Racoome slammed his head forward and into his own. The force of the hit sent him flying backwards, a big, bloody mark on his head.
A large amount of energy began forming in Racoome's mouth.
"Racoome Boom!"
A giant wave of purple energy shot from the giant's mouth, heading straight for Vegeta's limp form.
"Masenko-Ha!"
A smaller, yellow beam impacted the side of the purple one, sending them both off course and exploding in the sky. For several seconds, the sky was dyed purple.
"Huh?"
Racoome was confused and looked to Jeice for info.
Jeice just pointed to Gohan, his hands still outstretched and smoking.
"While I'm not a big fan of Vegeta, I can't let you kill him. We'll need him when we have to fight Frieza."
By this point Racoome was glaring daggers at the young half-Saiyan.
"The brat is mine!"
"Lord Frieza, Lord Frieza!"
Frieza impatiently stepped from his quarters.
"This better be important! I'm having difficulties tra-"
Frieza couldn't get himself to finish because of his surprise, there, surrounding Ginyu, was all seven Dragonballs.
"How did you manage that?"
Ginyu just smirked.
"They were in Vegeta's possession."
A smirk crossed Frieza's face.
"I take it the monkey prince is dead?"
Ginyu shook his head.
"Not yet my lord. But if you wish, my men have him at their mercy."
Frieza seemed to contemplate.
"No, I want to see his face when he sees that I have immortality. Good job, you and your men earned yourselves a nice bonus. Now I can get my wish."
Ginyu and Frieza walked outside and Ginyu placed the seven balls in the order that Frieza dictated.
Frieza took a deep breath, preparing for his wish to be granted.
"I wish for immortality!"
Captain Ginyu watched closely, he noticed nothing.
"How do you feel, my lord?"
Frieza looked at his hands, trying to find the difference.
"I feel the same."
Ginyu didn't know what to say.
"Perhaps a test?"
Frieza sent a glare towards Captain Ginyu.
"Not until I know I'm immortal!"
The Captain merely bowed his head before an idea came to him.
"What if there is a password?"
It was then, that Frieza's eyes widened.
Flashback
Frieza stood, in front of him was a dying Namekian elder. The space tyrant stood over him.
"This could have ended peacefully for you, if you would have just given me the Dragonball."
The last words from the Namekian struck a chord in Frieza.
"Even if you collect all seven, your wish will never be granted. The Eternal Dragon answers to only a Namekian… I die in peace, knowing that soon, you will join me in Otherworld."
The light then left the man's eyes.
End Flashback
"Damn it! I need the password!"
Frieza slowly levitated off the ground.
"You will not let those Dragonballs out of your sight! I'm going to get that password!"
Captain Ginyu bowed slightly.
"By your leave, my Lord."
Frieza took off like a bullet, heading for the only power levels on the planet that didn't belong to The Ginyu Force or Vegeta's group.
"Computer, how long until I land?"
Landing on Planet Namek in approximately: 2 hours and 3 minutes.
"Need. To. Get. Stronger!"
Each word was accented by another push-up.
"I'm finally getting used to 100x gravity. Kaio-ken x10!"
No red aura flared around him, no excruciating pain, no side effects.
"Almost perfect!"
The Earth-raised Saiyan began jumping around the ship, sending ki blasts, just to phase in front of them and take the damage.
"I won't let them down!"
Jeice looked at Gohan like he was stupid.
"Oh, man. You messed up now. I've never seen Racoome so angry."
An angry purple aura surrounded the red haired man. The glare in his eyes promised pain, though Gohan was not afraid.
That's it! Please tell me what you think. I'm trying to keep it similar to cannon and have only been able to watch Youtube videos to refresh myself on the fights.
Please, review! Like it, love it, hate it, or tolerate it?
