Chapter 8

Out far away in space a satellite was transferring the fight towards a ship.

"So it seems my brother has got himself into some trouble" said Cooler as he sat in a chair with a giant screen in front of him playing out the fight between the Saiyan's and the Ginyu Force.

As he watched the fight, he was mildly impressed with the fight but one fighter stuck out from the others, the small Saiyan boy who had fought Captain Ginyu. Cooler while impressed by the power of the boy, what truly impressed him was the tactics and skill the kid had shown and because of this Cooler had decided to further involve himself in this matter. Cooler stared at the screen as the fight was replayed where Gohan used the Special Beam Cannon to kill Ginyu.

"What interesting techniques. I wonder what else this Saiyan boy knows and imagine what would happen if you put real power behind those attacks" Cooler said to himself as he continued to think and hit a button on his chair.

One of his henchmen came towards him kneeling down on one knee with one arm crossed over his chest and his head bent low.

"You called my lord," asked the henchman.

"Yes, set up a video call with my brother," said Cooler.

"Right away my lord," said the henchman as he stood up and walked over to some computers and started typing for about minute before returning to Cooler and bowing again.

"My lord the call is set up, just awaiting your orders," said the henchman.

"Start it," said Cooler.

The Henchman nodded and hit a couple more buttons on the computer and the screen showing the fight switched to a picture of the inside of another ship, when a voice came out from the other side "So what's the special occasion dear brother".

DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ

In another space ship far off in another part of space, Frieza sat in a room staring off into space with a glass of wine in his hand swirling it around in his hand.

When his concentration broke as one of his henchman came into the room hurriedly "My Lord there is someone trying, to connect with you in a video call" said the henchman.

"Oh, and who would this person be," said Frieza as his tail slithered back and forth on the ground as he continued to stare out into the blackness of space.

"It's your brother Lord Cooler," said the henchman.

When the news reached Frieza, his tail stopped slithering and the room went into an uncomfortable silence, as the henchman started to shake in fear, worrying he had upset his master.

"My Lord?" asked the Henchman slowly.

"Set it up," Frieza said coolly.

"Yes my lord," said the henchman as he quickly left the room.

Frieza stepped back and sat in his chair as a giant screen lowered from the roof of the room.

"I wonder what my dear old brother would want after all this time," Frieza said to himself as he took a sip of his wine.

When an image came up on the black screen "So what's the special occasion dear brother" Frieza said in a sarcastic voice.

"I just saw something very interesting that's all little brother" smirked Cooler.

"Oh, and this thing must be very important for you to be calling me since we haven't seen each other in 3 years," said Frieza.

"Oh it is, would you like to see it," responded Cooler as he continued to smirk.

"Well, it would be rude of me not too since you took all the trouble of calling" joked Frieza.

"Ok, well here it is," said Cooler.

Frieza waited a bit when the screen changed and a video started playing. Frieza watched the video in interest when he recognised the fighters. They were his fighters, the Ginyu Force and Zarbon where facing the Saiyan's that he had ordered them to kill. Frieza watched the video in amusement as he believed he was about to watch his warriors massacre their opponents. But was in for a surprise when the fight actually began and watched as one by one his warriors were eradicated by the Saiyan's and his anger grew and finally spilled over and crushed the wine glass as he watched Captain Ginyu being killed.

The screen turned back to Cooler ship, where Cooler stood there with his arms crossed in a smirk "I told you it was interesting".

"How did you get this video," demanded Frieza.

"Just some things I have set up," said Cooler.

Frieza noticed the vagueness his brother had used and was about to respond when the henchman from before came into the room "My Lord your" was all he got out before Frieza turned around and fired two purple energy beams from his eyes that hit the henchman who let out a short scream before his body was turned into dust.

Frieza was about to turn back towards Cooler when a voice grabbed his and Cooler's attention "Temper, temper son" said King Cold as he entered the room leaving both his sons shocked.

"Father," both said in unisons.

"Father why are you here?" asked Frieza.

"Does there have to be a reason to visit my son?" asked King Cold.

"Father," said Cooler.

"Ah, hello Cooler, it seems you and your brother are talking again," King Cold said in surprise.

"Yes, so it seems," said Frieza.

"Ah and what topic could bring you two back together?" asked King Cooler curiously.

"Saiyan's" Cooler said simply.

This caused King Cold to start laughing making both Cooler and Frieza to look at him weirdly.

"What's so funny father?" Frieza asked curiously.

"Nothing it's just the fact that something as insignificant as Saiyan's could bring our family back together," said King Cold.

This caused both Frieza and Cooler to look at him curiously "What do the Saiyan's have to do with you, father" said Frieza.

"I simply came here to congratulate you, on finally taking my advice and exterminating those monkeys," said King Cold.

"Well, it seems those monkeys are causing Frieza here a lot of trouble" Cooler smirked which caused Frieza to glare at him in return.

"Oh is that right" replied King Cold as he turned his attention to Frieza.

"Some Saiyan's found out about my plan to destroy their planet. So I sent some of my warriors after them only to find out they were just killed" said Frieza as his anger started to increase with each word.

"Oh really, what rank were they and what was the power level of each fighter," King Cold asked curiously.

"They were my elite, my strongest. The strongest fighter I sent had a power level of 120, 000" growled out Frieza.

"Oh really and how did this fight play out," asked King Cold in curiosity.

Frieza was about to answer when Cooler interrupted him "Here Father, I have a video of the fight" said Cooler with a smirk. As the screen both Frieza and King Cold were looking at when the battle between the Saiyan's and Ginyu force began to play once again.

King Cold watched the fight in curiosity as he watched one by one as the Ginyu Force were defeated.

When the video ended Cooler reappeared on the screen "As you can see, Frieza's forces were decimated easily by these Saiyan's" said Cooler.

"Yes so it seems, and none of them were in their Oozaru Forms. Some even appeared to be holding back. I would be curious to see what these Saiyan's can truly do" said King Cold.

"Yes so would I," said Cooler in agreement.

"So what do you suggest I do father," asked Frieza.

The room was quite for a while as Frieza and Cooler waited for King Cold's response.

"We cannot allow any chaos to happen under our rule, and must show the might to crush and eliminate any chance of any uprising. And reassert and remind the universe who rules it" said King Cold.

Which both Cooler and Frieza agreed seemed to be the right idea "So what do you think we should do father" asked Cooler.

King Cold smirked "We will threaten and command the Yardrat's to hand over the Saiyan's and then we will broadcast to the entire universe the fight of the century".

"Okay Father, but who will be fighting the Saiyan's," asked Frieza.

"You two," said King Cold.

Both Frieza and Cooler smirked at this at the thought of killing the Saiyan's with the rest of the universe watching.

"So when should we do it father" smiled Frieza in anticipation.

"Now, I want you to call Yardrat and give them the ultimatum," said King Cold.

"Ok," said Frieza as he left the room to set up the video call.

"And don't worry Father I will take care of broadcasting the fight to the rest of the universe," said Cooler as the screen shut off leaving the screen black.

DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ... DBZ...DBZ...DBZ

Gohan and the other Saiyan's had headed back to the Yardrat City, sitting in the cafeteria eating, when they noticed one of the Yardrat's advisors heading towards them.

"Hello the elder would like to talk to you immediately there has been a very urgent message," said the counselor.

The Saiyan's looked at one another and nodded get up from their seats "Everyone grab onto me" said Gohan.

The others nodded as all the Saiyan's and the Yardrat advisor grabbed onto one another shoulders. Gohan raised his two fingers to his forehead and concentrated on the elder's ki before disappearing and reappearing in the room.

"Ah good you are here," said the Elder.

"Yes your advisor said that it was urgent," said Gohan.

"Ya, so what's the big problem?" asked Fasha.

"Frieza" the Elder simply said.

"Frieza?" asked Bardock.

"Yes, he just called threatening us, that if we did not give you Saiyan's up that we would be at war with the Cold Empire" answered the Elder.

"What did you say" asked Tora.

"I said no," said the Elder.

"WHAT, why," said Gohan causing the other Saiyan's to look at him weirdly.

"You're risking the wellbeing of your people," said Gohan in worry.

The Elder smiled at Gohan "True, but I cannot in good conscious send you four to your death".

"But...Call Frieza" said Gohan as he got an idea.

"WHAT?" said the Elder and the other Saiyan's in surprise.

"I cannot allow you risking your people, just for us. We are the ones who came here so we will take care of the problem we caused" said Gohan.

"So what do you have planned" asked the Elder.

"It's easy I' m going to use Frieza's overconfidence against him" smirked Gohan.

The Elder still looked uncertain but agreed to it after a confident smile from Gohan. Gohan approached a computer screen where some scientist were setting up the video call, Gohan stood in front of the screen waiting for the video call. When the video screen switch from black to colour where it showed Frieza had his back to the screen.

"So I see you changed your mind," said Frieza as triumph could be heard in his voice.

Gohan smirked "No".

Frieza spun around in shock from the voice and answered he heard when he came face to face with Gohan "YOU".

"Me" smirked Gohan.

"What are you doing," asked Frieza.

"I have a proposition for you," said Gohan.

"Really and why should I even listen," said Frieza.

"Well I guess you don't have to, but that'll just prove how afraid you are," said Gohan as he waited for Frieza to take the bait.

"Afraid! Fine, what do you suggest" asked Frieza in anger.

"Easy, we finish this where it all began, Planet Meat," said Gohan.

"Oh," asked Frieza in curiosity.

"Ya you see, you know that we just defeated the Ginyu Force. Also I know that they were your strongest fighters, so if you plan to stop us then you're going to have to do it yourself" smirked Gohan.

Frieza growled as he knew what Gohan had said was true "So how about we make this simple, I know that you know that I'm your only real threat, so I suggest a trade" said Gohan.

"Oh, and what do you propose we trade," Frieza asked in curiosity.

"Easy you will get me while you will hand over Vegeta, Nappa and Raditz and let them leave," said Gohan.

"Really, but why should I trade 3 Saiyan's for 1," asked Frieza with a smirk.

"Because I know that I'm the one you really want," said Gohan as he returned the grin.

Frieza lost his smirk and thought for a while but answered after a while "Fine, when do you suggest to meet up" asked Frieza.

"Exactly 2 weeks from today," said Gohan.

"Oh and why should I give you two weeks," said Frieza.

"Why, what are you afraid of," said Gohan with a smirk.

Frieza growled in anger but then a thought came to him "Fine, two weeks Planet Meat" smirked Frieza when the screen suddenly went black.

Gohan smirked that Frieza had taken his bait when he turned around when he was met with shocked faces all around the room "What" asked Gohan.

"Why did you just offer yourself to Frieza, you idiot," said Tora.

"Just trust me what I did was the right thing. Besides I just got Vegeta, Nappa and Raditz back" said Gohan.

"Ya, but Frieza could kill you," said Fasha.

"Fasha's right it's too dangerous, we can find another way," said Bardock.

"Trust me this is the best way. It allows me to prepare for the fight; besides Planet Meat doesn't have any life on it. Which means that no one will be in harms way" explained Gohan.

Everyone in the room stayed quite in the room trying to find room for argument.

"Besides what's done is done. I don't think he's the lenient type" laughed Gohan.

Everyone stayed quiet in the room when Tora broke the silence "So what now".

"It's time to do what we do best," said Gohan.

Bardock smirked in return "It's time to start training again".

The Saiyan's agreed and started leaving when the Elder called back Gohan.

"Ya what is it," asked Gohan.

The other Saiyan's stopped "Don't worry guys, I'll catch up" said Gohan.

The other Saiyan's nodded and left the room leaving Gohan and Elder.

"What is it?" asked Gohan.

"I don't think this is a good idea. You're just a boy, you shouldn't take all of this pressure by yourself" said the Elder.

"Trust me; I've been under much more pressure than this. Besides I'm the only one who can do this" said Gohan.

The Elder sighed in displeasure but agreed none the less.

The other Saiyan's waited outside the room wondering what Gohan and the King were talking about "What do you think there talking about" asked Tora.

"It must be important if they won't allow us to hear. What do you think Bardock?" asked Fasha when she received no response she tried again and turned around and found him leaning against the wall with his arms crossed looking down at the ground in concentration.

"Bardock," she asked again putting her hand on his shoulder snapping him out of his thought.

"Is everything okay?" Fasha asked softly.

"Ya just got lost in thought," said Bardock with a smile.

Before the others could question him, Gohan came out of the room.

The other's looked at him for answers when Gohan just smiled "So, who's ready to train" smiled Gohan.
