Hello everyone. Well, it's here. I finally reached it. We have arrived to the battle with the saiyans! I am so pumped for this, so much that I got a little lost for a bit. I hope this chapter will be good.


Chapter 9: The Battle Begins

Saiyan Saga Part 8


The Z-Warriors stood in the wasteland, still frozen in shock from the powers that flew like one massive river in their senses, as they noticed that the saiyans had much more power than they realized. Yajirobe was the one who was the most visibly afraid, as his body was shaking without control.

Raditz was the only one smiling, as he was confident in his power, and he always knew of the strength of his now former comrades-in-arms. The son Bardock stood firm, only with his arms shaking with great excitement, hoping to fulfil his promise to punch the prince of his race right in the face.

Chiaotzu was shaking as well, afraid of the strength of what was coming, fear giving him negative thoughts about their chances of survival. He then felt a shaky hand on his shoulder, as the triclops looked and smiled at his friend, trying to calm his doubts as well. "Don't worry buddy, we'll win those saiyans and then everything will go back to the way it was." the prodigy student of the crane school said to his pale companion in a calm and optimistic tone, bringing a smile of hope to the china doll looking warrior.

Yamcha and Krillin stood next to each other, both shaking of worry from what they sensed. The former bandit closed his eyes and tried to think of something to get himself motivated. Immediately a mental picture of Bulma and Bra came to his head. He imagined his left hand stroking the right cheek of the lavender haired scientist he loved so much, as his right hand petted the lavender hair of his now five years old daughter. The scar-faced warrior opened his eyes as his shaking stopped, with determination flowing in his brain. He was going to live and then he would go back and reform the family he had.

Krillin saw as his friend closing his eyes, making the short monk do the same. 'What can I think about to repress this fear? What does a small guy like me has to lose? Is there something for me to lose?' doubts came to the head of the noseless warrior, making the fear in his mind greater. His body shook without control, as more thoughts of doubts came to his mind. Then he remembered something, a person.

The image of Goku, his best friend, came to his mind. 'Goku. Of course! I have too much to lose! Goku always went for the help of everyone, even when I died once. When he died, he lost much more than I did. He had a wife, a son and an entire roster of friends and allies. I can also now think of my friends.' the short warrior thought as the mental image of Goku disappeared and the images of all his friends came to mind.

The first one to get much more clear was Muten Roshi, his master in martial arts and his teacher when it comes to the facts of life. Krillin felt nothing but respect and gratitude for the man, as he grew with his teaching and philosophy and now he was a warrior who, like his master, was about to face a threat that could destroy Earth. 'Master, I hope you will watch me today, and that I bring you only pride. And try not to piss off Launch.' he thought as the mental image of his master became blurry.

The second image that became clear was the image of the other Z-Fighters, now his friends and allies in battle. They were all about to face the same threat as him and he felt that now they were friends with bonds forged in blood, even Piccolo and Gohan, who started to train with the rest a bit afterwards. 'I hope all of us are gonna make it fellas, because this is our greatest test. If we succeed, there will be a great party, and I want to attend.' he thought as the image became blurry to his eyes.

The next one was of Puar, Oolong and Turtle all grouping as one with wide happy smiles on their faces. Calmness and determination started to fight back the doubts and fear in his mind, as he remembered all the birthdays and all the parties he had with those three, especially Oolong and Turtle. 'Don't worry guys, we'll win, and you will see your friends once more. No one will die, not if I have something to say about it.' he thought to himself as the image became blurry.

The next image was that of Launch, the woman that he lived with on Kame House along with his master for so many years, as his thoughts of her made him more determined. 'I always wanted to ask you out, and if I survive this fight, I will try to do just that, and whether you accept of refuse I won't care. I just feel sad you will always be the number 2 in my mind. he said with a sad yet accepting tone as the image became blurry and then darkened.

The last image he saw was that of Bulma, making him feeling a sensation of butteflies in the stomach. For the longest time he had feelings for her, but knew she always prefered men like Yamcha who were manlier. He thought of a year ago, when he heared they broke up, he immediately wanted to try to push himself foward to ask her out, but the whole Raditz thing happened, changing everything.

The noseless monk focused on her beatutiful lavender hair, her arousing lips covered with bright red lipstick, making his feelings stronger. 'After today, I'll try my luck with you as well Bulma. If you will want me, I swear to love you with all my heart and treat your daughter as if she was my own.' he thought as he saw the image disappear before his eyes, making him open them. Now he knew what he had to lose, and he wasn't going to die today.

Gohan was afraid, as thoughts of what kind of power the montrous saiyans had if what he felt was right. Small tears started come flow from the eyes of the son of Goku, as he started to shake like Yajirobe. A reassuring hand had found itself on his shoulder, as he looked up to see to the motivated eyes of his mentor meeting his own. "Don't be afraid kid. This is what you prepared for, so take everything I tought you and use it against the saiyans. Understand Gohan?" the former demon asked the son of his arch-nemesis, as the boy nodded and used his hand to wipe the tears.

Raditz looked at all the fighters around him and he gave them a serious gaze. "All of you, remove all your weighted clothing! I know You are still wearing some!" he ordered everyone with a loud roar, making the turtle students to remove their dark blue undershirts, boots and wrist bands. Now they were wearing just the orange dogi and orange baggy pants, which gave both Krillin and Yamcha a moment of nostalgia, of a time much simpler than it was about to be.

Tien took off his white weighted shirt, only wearing his yellow baggy pants and black martial arts shoes. Piccolo took off his white turban and weighted caped shoulderpads, making him lighter than ever. Everyone knacked their fingers as well as their necks, when a sudden 'BOOM!' met their ears, as well as sensing thousands upon thousands die in an instant.

"Whoa!" Krillin yelled in shock, surprise and terror, as he felt bad for all the poor souls that had just died by the monsters they were about to face. His body shook as a reaction to sensing all that death at once, but quickly reassured himself, remembering his promises.

The long haired brother of Goku stepped foward, putting his hands at both sides of his waist. He bent his knees slightly. "HA!" he shouted as a short shout, as his power rose slightly, while everyone else repressed their full strength as much as they could.

Raditz looked at the warriors behind him, not moving an inch from his stance or position. "Everyone into a battle stance now!" he barked his order, as the short monk and the former bantid got into their turtle school stance while the triclops and his pale friend got into their crane school stance and Piccolo and the son of Earth's defender went to a demon stance.

They waited for at least a minute until the saiyans arrived and landed in front of them, ready to face the Earth's last line of defence. Everyone saw all the three saiyans they were about to face in mortal combat. On the left was a giant bald man with a small mustache and a delighted grin on his face that made him look like an arrogant yet excited child. He wore a short-sleeved black spandex and a PTO armor with black chest plates, bright golden-brown shoulder pads and lower protectors and bright golden-brown outlining, similar to Raditz's armor but not completely the same.

The on in the middle was the shortest, his height was probably at 5'5, he had a flaming hairstyle that was similar to a willow's peak. He had a red scouter on his left eye, he wore a long-sleeved blue spandex and white armor, with golden-brown shoulder pads, outlining and upper legs and crotch protectors and to add to all of that he wore white gloves. What was most noticeable about him was his enormous power and smug grin on his face.

The third and last one whom stood on the right. He had short spikey hair that went upwards, slightly like the short saiyan, and he had two big spikes on the left and right side on the top of the spiky hair. In the middle of his forest of short spikes, there were seven spikes that faced downwards, giving it a sort of a reversed crown appearance. He was standing at a height of 5'9 and wore a red long-sleeved spandex with white armor with red shoulder pads, golden-brown outlining, golden brown crotch protector, as well as white boots and gloves. He was the one that had a serious look on his face.

The saiyan in the red then turned to the shorter fighter and whispered something in his ear, with the flame haired saiyan only nodding, keeping his smug grin at all times. The second tallest saiyan then stepped forth, looking as if he was about to talk to the warriors of Earth. "Humans, Namekian and Raditz," he started to talk, having a deep tone to his voice, but it boomed in all their ears as he addressed them. "My prince said that if you want to live, please give us the artifacts known as the Dragon Balls, or at least tell us about it. If you won't, we will kill you and destroy your planet. But I was promised that you will have a fighting chance." he said as if that was a good thing, making all the warriors tense.

The saiyan then saw the small figure of Gohan, as the child was shaking from fear, but was determined to fight. The sight of the boy made the saiyan in red to give an angry and disgusted gaze at the eldest son of Bardock. "Did you have to go that low Raditz?!" he yelled as the brother of son Goku prepared himself, but the saiyan never charged at him. "You know that I don't like hurting children who can't or won't fight! Did you really decide to be that cowardly?!" the saiyan in red inquired his former ally with an infuriated tone in his deep and booming voice, causing the long haired warrior to grin.

The warrior in red then immediately powered up, igniting his white-blue aura, ready to charge at his former ally. "BRYCO STOP!" the short saiyan barked at his comrade, making the saiyan in red stop in his tracks and fly back next to his leader. He then bowed down to the flame haired saiyan and for several seconds before the saiyan in blue ordered him to get up.

The big one then stepped foward, pressing the button on his red scouter that was on his left eye. He checked Raditz only to see his power was only 3,100 unites, making the large gorilla sized saiyan to burst out laughing. "Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha! You think you can take us with 3,100 unites Raditz?!" he asked as he laughed harder, causing the former PTO to grin with satisfaction, as he managed to hide his true power.

The burly saiyan then clenched his fists and started to power up. "No, I intend to do that with this. AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" he roared with all his throat could muster, while his white-blue aura ignited and the ground beneath him cracked and fractured. rubble started to levitate in the air as the fractures in the ground became bigger and bigger. The area around them started to shake and all three scouters ran numbers and calculated like crazy.

the tips of Raditz's mane stood for several moments, as the power of his ki flew through and powerful winds flew out and pushed everyone backwards, as the Z-Fighters barely could stand their ground against the might of the winds that were dispressing all around the wasteland.

More powerful winds were created, as giant rocks were crumbled into dust and mountains started to crumble a little as well. All the winds then started to gather and spin around the saiyan warrior who fought with the Z-Warriors, and it took the dust with them, creating a hurricane of dust, sending even all three saiyans backwards inch by inch.

The earth finally stopped fracturing, cracking and breaking and the tornado disappeared as the aura disappeared and Raditz finished shouting. He stood there, taking a deep breath, then he looked at his former allies whom left him like nothing a year ago.

Vegeta, Nappa and Bryco were shocked, as Raditz never shown any kind of power like that when he was with them. While Nappa and Bryco's bodies shook like crazy, Vegeta looked at his scouter, checking the result it showed of Raditz's power. He then took off the scouter from his eye, as his smug grin changed to an angry frown. He then smashed his scouter to bits, much to the surprise of his allies.

Both saiyans then looked at their scouters and saw what their prince saw to cause him to do such an act: Raditz's power level was 15,500 unites.

Raditz then launched himself past the oaf and the saiyan in red, as he flew straight at the prince of all saiyans with a thunderous left hook. Vegeta easily sidestepped it as he tilted his head to the right, only to see Radit's right hand coming in with a small orb of briight pink that was the size of half of the burly warrior's palm. "Here's a present my prince." he said causing the flame haired warrior to bring up his left hand to defend.

"MINI MONDAY BOMB!" the eldest son of Bardock roared as his hand went straight to the prince's face as he tried to bring up his left hand to defend. When the small bomb hit the arm of the prince, a large pink explosion engulfed them both.

The blast blinded everyone, as they couldn't see inside the dome of pink light. Both Z-Warriors and their saiyan adversaries used their arms to shield their eyes from the blinding light.

When the light finally died down they saw bothe Raditz and Vegeta were unscathed from the explosion, with Vegeta's left arm lost half of the arm's spandex until the elbow as well as his white glove being incinerated. It also seemed like the explosion just sent the prince backwards for about 15 meters.

The flame haired saiyan lowered his left arm and smiled at Raditz. "Not bad Raditz, not bad at all. I could say that I'm almost impressed." he mocked the long haired saiyan with a smug grin and a sarcastic tone in his voice, causing the brother of Goku to growl in anger, despite knowing he was still weaker than the prince.

The blue wearing saiyan then looked at his comrades with a delighted wide grin on his arrogant face. "Nappa, Bryco, kill the rest. Use the saibamen if needed." he ordered as he turned his gaze back at his foe, only to notice his former comrade about to hit him on the head with a double-axe hammer.

The prince of all saiyans raised both his arms to block the hammer strike from Raditz. As hammer hit against guard, the ground beneath them crumbled by the massive shockwave and air pressure that was sent down, creating a medium-sized crater.

Both warriors floated in the air trying to gain advantage over the other, only for the prince to quickly push back the long haired saiyan. To his surprise, Raditz used the momentum of the push to spin backwards in the air, sending a kick to the prince's chin, making Vegeta fly upwards for a bit before correcting himself midair.

Raditz ignited his aura and flew at the prince, but as he reached his foe, Vegeta bent down slightly and put both hands on the burly saiyan's chest and blasted him with a powerful ki blast.

The brother of Goku was sent flying with great speed while his bulky frame was smoking from the ki blast he just got to the chest. He quickly corrected himself as he saw Vegeta coming at him with a ki charged fist. The prince swinged with great force at the eldest son of Bardock, only for the fist to go through Raditz, as he used an afterimage.

The current leader of the saiyan race looked to his sides as fast as possible, only for his temple to be hammered by a mighty left hook from Raditz, causing his foe to spit saliva from the impact and sending the price flying so fast he broke the sound barrier several times.

Raditz tried to follow on in order to make a combo of strikes at the short warrior, only to get a thunderous knee to the chin from the still flying Vegeta, who just started to slow himself down. The knee strike of the flame haired warrior sent his long haired foe up, braking the sound barrier much more than his foe did.

As the elite managed to correct himself, he followed up and punched his foe several times in the face, then he smashed a double-axe hammer to the head of the brother of Goku, sending him crashing down back to the ground with massive force. When Raditz reached the ground, he crashed with a ton of force, creating a massive dust cloud and a large crater.


The giant oaf of a saiyan made six holes in the ground with his fingers, putting a drop of a strange green liquid in each hole, much to the confusion of the Z-Fighters. For several moments the saiyans just stood there, as if something was about to happen. The big man just stared at everyone, making it really akward for those moments.

The ground shook a little as six green cabbage looking monsters came out of the ground with a hissing screech that made the warriors cover their ears, as it sounded like claws scratching a board. Each beast had a cabbage head, yellow and animalistic eyes and thin arms with three claws each.

"Ta da" Nappa said with an excited tone, as if he was a small child presenting the result of something like a magic trick, causing confusion to set on the minds of the defenders of Earth. The monsters, while hideous, were not very strong compared to them, making them feel confident about themselves.

Bryco, the saiyan in the red spandex, snapped his finger, making the small cabbage beasts t look at him like they are a dog waiting for a command. "Saibamen, I want three of you to catch the small boy over there," he said in a serious tone, pointing his finger at Gohan for the monsters to see their target. "I want you to knock him out and drag him away from the battlefield. No boy at his age should witness fighting." he said with a genuine sad tone, showing his resolve to not hurt the five years old.

Three saibamen then nodded their heads and charged at Gohan like rabid dogs trying to kill their target. One run ahead and closed on the son of Goku, making him jump backwards. It threw a claw but the boy dodged, making the offence against him hopeless for the walking green beans.

A second saibaman got close to Gohan, who shook with fear from the fact that he was about to fight another one, well at least just dodge. Fortunately, Piccolo caught the walking cabbage's arm and ripped it off like a band aid, causing the monster to shriek. "I won't let this charade go on! None of you shall touch the boy!" he declared, as he kicked the saibaman so hard it flew at blinding speeds. The former demon then opened his mouth and fired a mouth blast at the small green beast, blowing it up with a great explosion of yellow fire that made a "THRUUUM!" sound upon impact.

All the other saibamen panicked when they saw it, causing them to charge the warriors who stood as Earth's last line of defence, however their opponents were ready.

Krillin created two ki blades from his aura, sharpening them to his limit, as it was still a work in progress. A saibaman jumped at him, only to be cut to several pieces as the short monk moved his ki blade in a x shape. "Awesome, right? That is my X-Cut technique." he said with pride in his voice, as he got to unleash a brand new attack.

The triclops felt completely calm as he sidestepped a saibaman, only to knock it out cold with one chop to the back of the head. Or so he thought, as several moments later the thing charged at him again, only for the crane school desciple to stop its movements and put his finger glowing with yellow light right between the monster's eyes. "Dodonpa!" he yelled as the energy beam peirced the head of the cabbage beast, killing it instantly. The triclops then gave a cold look back at the saiyans.

Yamcha was having the time of his life, kicking the thing whenever it charged at him, as if the former bandit was playing baseball, something he did for the last three years. The small green cabbage head charged at the scar-faced warrior once again, only to pass through an afterimage. Confused, the monster started searching for its target until it heard something.

"Kamehameha!" Yamcha roared as he released the signature move of the turtle school, which quickly hit and atomized the monster the long haired human was facing with ease. He looked around and saw that even Yajirobe and Chiaotzu got a kill, as the pale warrior crushed the heads of two cabbage monsters using his telekinesis, while the samurai just decapitated the last one with his sword like the master swordsman he was.

When they gathered together they all gave a serious and determined face to their foes, who stood there with wide eyes and jaws hitting the floor from their surprise. "Well... I guess Raditz wasn't the only one to surprise us. So how about you go and play commander?" Bryco asked his superior by title, who just smiled and started walking in an ominous way, only to be grabbed by the saiyan in red.

The comrade of Nappa looked at the giant of a saiyan in the eyes with a serious and omnious gaze. "Leave the kid to me, I'll eventually manage to end him. Kill the rest, except the namekian." he said, causing the humans to gulp and for Piccolo to stand in front of Gohan in order to protect him.

Nappa smiled at him in a childish yet sort of develish grin. "Okay Bryco, whatever you say." he said as he charged at the greatest warriors Earth could muster. First he punched Chiaotzu in the left cheek with a strong right hook, sending the little pale warrior flying, hitting a mountain with a loud "BRSSSSSS!", causing rocks to block the point he hit upon impact.

"Chiaotzu!" Tien roared, as he tired to send a right kick at the side of the brute, only for it to be blocked. Tien the fliped in the air and tried to drop an axe kick on the head of the bald saiyan, only for that to be blocked as well, much to the annoyance and anger of the crane school student.

Krillin and Yamcha stood at both sides of the oaf that was their opponent, their hands cupped to the side of their waist. Tien immediately flipped back and took several steps before doing the same thing, much to the confusion of the saiyan general.

"KA," they all said simuntanously, as a small flicker of light came from inside the cupped hands.

Nappa looked at them and blinked with confusion. "What are you doing?" their foe asked like a child interested in a group of kids playing a game. "You're going to hit me with an attack and see if I can tank it? I LOVE IT!" he suddenly shouted as he steeled himself for whats to come.

"ME," the three humans continued, as their determined eyes set their goal on the bald gorilla that was their saiyan foe, as the orbs got slightly bigger. Their legsstuck deeper into the ground, like they were statues because of how tense they felt fighting against such a strong opponent.

"HA" they continued, but now the blue orbs grew to a large size, so large the cupped hands could barely contain them. Nappa's scouter started beeping as it calculated the rise of the three human's power level, making the oaf of a commander grin with anticipation.

"ME" all three continued, as Yajirobe got behind a rock and looked at his comrades prepare to blast the saiyan head on. He hoped it would kill the bold gorilla of a man, but what if it doesn't? Scary thoughts then came to his mind.

"HAAAAAA!" the three humans roared simultaneously as they send their hands foward and three large beams came from their hands, engulfing the giant saiyan with ease. All three beams then met it a center that was were Nappa stood, only to explode in a giant ball of blue light and flame, as a loud "THRUSSSSS!" ringed in their ears.

The smoke started to clear, as all humans saw a large and wide crater, an obvious result of the explosion, and they saw the giant in an x-shaped guard, a lot of first degree burns on his left and right side, and his scouter and armor were broken. The bald saiyan was now standing in front of them completely topless.

He lowered his guard and smiled at the human warriors, like a kid winning a game. "That was fun! You really gave it your all in there! Now to continue the game, one of you has to tank my attack!" he shouted whith joy, as blood and adrenaline pumped in his body from the result of such an exciting fight.

He raised his hand, preparing to blast the Z-Warrios with his largest wide scale attack. "TANK THIS ASSHOLE!" Chiaotzu roared with rage, as his index finger glowed with a briliant white light. "Istquae Tu-Magia Yasueu." the pale warrior said drawing a triangle with his finger, a small line of white light behind it. When he finished drawing the triangle, he drew a cross inside it. The triangle and the cross's edges merged in perfect symmetry, and he put his left palm on the drawing, making a large white circle of runes appear around his bald opponent.

The saiyan lowered his hand and looked at the circle in confusion, then at the mime looking warrior, then again at the circle, and afterward once more at the pale crane disciple, who put his right hand on the triangle. "PATRAS!" the small fighter roared, as a giant pillar of light engulfed the giant saiyan.

The pillar rose to the sky in great speed and force, and when it finally "exploded", the pillar of light looked like a gigantic cross of magical light.


Raditz got up from the crater, his gi ripped to shreds, his shoulder pads broken and his chest plate cracked. Blood flew down from his lip and he had a gash on his left cheek, and he felt the bloodflowing from there as well. He was not doing so good in the battle.

Vegeta was doing much better as he only had several knocks on his face and a small stream of saliva from his mouth, but nothing too major to speak about. "Do you give up, low-class filth? Do you finally get the fact that you will never beat me?" he asked arrogantly and smugly, as he was pleased by the beating he gave the low-class son of Bardock.

Raditz took a battle stance, combining elements from the turtle school, crane school and Piccolo's stance, as he prepared to attack the prince once more, determination flaming inside his body. "Up yours, let's get on with this." he said, making the prince grin and get into a battle stance as well.

Raditz charged at him, sending a flurry of punches and kicks at the prince, who raise his guard to block as well as dodge the flurry. Punches and kick drilled the air in an amazing speed, looking like blurs as they cut the air , only to be either blocked or dodged by the prince of all saiyans. For the most parts the assult on the flame haired warrior failed, once in a while a kick or a punch managed to pass through the guard and hit Vegeta.

One of the kicks that hit the prince was a powerful kick, one that sent the prince flying backwards. The older brother of Goku used that chance to charge ki in both his hands, then he put his hands in front, palms facing Vegeta. "DOUBLE SUNDAY!" he yelled as two beams of ki charged from his palms lauched themselves at the blue wearing saiyan like rockets, but the prince managed to correct himself in time, and smacked the beams away like they were nothing.

Vegeta landed on the ground in an elegant way, still as proud of himself as ever, he smirked at Raditz. "Very nice Raditz. You have become way stronger than I expected in the last year." he said to the long hared warrior, as if he was actually impressed by the newfound strength of his former comrade. "But it's still not enough! Now I'll show you how a real saiyan fights!" he roared with his decleration and charged at the now second strongest saiyan alive.

Raditz prepared himself, as the prince of all saiyans sent a flurry of punches at the eldest son of Bardock. Unlike with his assult, Vegeta's was more calculated but also more aggresive and ferocious at the same time. Raditz tried as hard as he could, but he only dodged and blocked about half of the punches the prince sent at him. The other half hammered into his face and body like a wrecking ball.

At the end of his flurry, the flame haired warrior sent a kick to the face of his foe, sending him flying upwards. The now defender of Earth corrected himself, only to find the prince senting a volley of ki blasts at him. Raditz started blocking as fast as he could, which was much easier than blocking the punches of his adversary. When the volley started to die down, The long haired fighter started sending a volley of his own.

Ki blast met ki blast in a blinding flash of light and a loud "BOOM!" sound, as both warriors started going hard with their volleys ki ki blasts. The balls of concentrated ki that missed each other either exploded in the atmosphere or on the ground and mountains, creating small craters as well as rock slides all around them.

After a while of doing the same thing, both saiyans stopped and Raditz landed back on the ground, panting heavily. Vegeta panted lightly, but using all that energy made a slight effect even on him.

The prince of all saiyans smirked an arrogant and condescending grin as he looked at the injured foe standing in front of him. "Is that all Raditz? You gave quite a good fight, but now it ends." he said arrogantly to his former comrade, who just growled aggitated from the prince's remark.

The tired and injured defender of Earth got into a battle stance once more, standing defiant at his former prince. "Shut. The. Fuck. Up!" he panted with every word he said, igniting his arua and charging straight at the short warrior.

Vegeta then gave him a powerful knee to his abdomen, breaking his armor completely, as well as sending him upwards coated in wind, as he boomed when he broke the sound barrier several times. Vegeta then appeared above him and crashed a double-axe hammer to his head, sending him crashing to the ground.

When he crashed at full force, the earth broke and fractured around him, as if it could break completely, like when erthquakes break islands from their main lands. Vegita landed, standing above the saiyan lying on the cracked and fractured ground.

The blue wearing spandex then smashed his fists at Raditz face and bare chest over and over again, until the long haired saiyan's face was filled with bloody and swollen bumps. The vision of the eldest son of Bardock got blurry and it started to be filled with blackness. 'Fuck. How could I fail like this? Kakarot, please be strong enough to kick his ass. I'm counting on you.' the older brother of Goku thought to himself as blackness covered his vision and he lost contiousness.


Nappa was now suffering third degree burns all over his body as a result of the small pale warrior's attack, much to his anger and surprise. His movements were now slugish as he was still recovering from the last attack he was struck by.

The tri-clops was the first to srtike. He charged at the saiyan at full speed, sending a lotus kick to his head, with the saiyan barely blocking it in time. Tien then hammered a flurry of punches at the chest and abdomen of his giant bald foe, all of them were calculated and targeted with much skill.

Every punch hit the abdomen of the large saiyan, causing him to flinch and wince from the pain that his body accumilated. As he took a step back, his face was hammered by a thunderous kick from the bald crane student, which broke his nose.

Blood started to flow from the nostrils of the broken nose, as the feeling of pain and furry rose in the mind of the saiyan. He felt the taste of blood in his mouth as a small stream came from his lip. He was going to make them pay when he would recover.

The scar-faced warrior then sent a chop to the back of Nappa's neck, causing the saiyan general to fall to his knees. A kick then came to his cheek from the three-eyed warrior, as a flurry of punches came to the alien's face.

Tien finished his combo with a kick to the chin of the larger foe, sending him up to the sky. Tien followed, cocking back his left arm for a powerful left hook to the cheek. When he got to his foe with great speed, he launched his hand like a rocket, only to have it caught by the large general, who angrily frowned at the triclops.

The saiyan started to press and add force to his hand that caught the fist of his opponent. "You know, I was trying to be a team player, trying to be a nice guy," he said as he added more stress and force against the fist of the crane student, causing him to grunt in pain. "BUT YOU WOULDN'T HAVE IT!" he suddenly shouted, as he crushed the fist of the human, breaking every bone in his hand.

Tien cried in pain from having his hand broken, as a thunderous uppercut came to his chin, sending him upwards with a loud "PRISHH!" and a stream of blood coming from his mouth. Nappa then follwed and grabbed the bald, tall human by the head, as he started hammering punch after punch with an enormouse amounts of strength and weight to each strike that met his face.

Blood started comming from gashes formed on his face, his lip was swollen and his nose was broken. He tried punching his bald saiyan foe on the cheek, making a miture of blood and saliva coming from the mouth of the alien, only to receive a powerful right hook to his eye, making it swollen.

The saiyan known as Nappa then flipped the triclops and charged with him towards the ground. The saiyan shouted an animalistic roar, as the human yelled from pain and worry from the next strike. As they got to the ground, Nappa planted the human warrior with a loud "BOOM!, creating a powerful shockwave that caused the other humans to lose their balance.

"TIEN!" the other crane student yelled with concern, as he tried to cast another spell, only to receive a ki blast from the large saiyan. As he flew in the air, pain shook the tiny body of the pale warrior, when suddenly the gorilla of a man appeared above him, landing a double-axe hammer on the face of the china doll loking fighter, sending him to the ground and causing darkness to fill his vision, as the small warrior lost contiousness.

Yajirobe came from behind the saiyan with his sword, only for the angry general to turn around and hammer a mighty right hook to his slightly chubby face, sending the samurai flying straight at a mountain, crumbling it to nothing but a pile of stones upon impact.

Nappa then looked at Krillin and Yamcha, both sweating like maniacs from fear for their safety and chances of victory, as well as worry for their allies. They reluctantly got into their turtle school battle stances and ignited their auras, preparing to face the saiyan.


While Nappa was beating up the humans, Piccolo and Gohan tried fighting the saiyan in red. As they sent flurries of kicks and punches with precision and skill at their foe, Bryco just dodged and blocked all their strikes with ease.

When an openning was finally apparant when the son of Earth's greatest defender hesitated for a split second, the short spiky haired saiyan sent a weak palm strik to the boy's chest, sending him backwards as saliva came from his mouth. A moment later he sent an incredibly strong punch to the abdomen of the namekian warrior, causing the Namek to puke a little bit of blood, but also slide at least 70 inches backwards across the ground of the wasteland.

Both fighters of planet Earth fell to their knees and panted slightly, as Bryco shook his head with disapproval. "I really hate hurting kids. There is no honor in taking a life that barely got to live." the saiyan said with disgust that was pointed at himself, giving time for his foes to catch their breath and stand up once again.

The eyes of the red spandex wearing alien went to catch the sight of the shaking frame of Gohan. "Yet here I am, fighting a small child in the most gentle way I can think of." he said with a sad tone, as the little boy managed to catch a glimps of a tear coming from the left eye of his foe.

The saiyan then gave the green skinned fighter a serious and chilling look. It seemed that his power was also starting rise. "However, I find that both of you deserve a clear chance for a fair fight, so I'll give you that chance." he said in a serious tone, his deep and booming voice elevating the seriousness of his words, as he ignited his aura, sending strong winds across the platue.

The winds pushed both warriors backwards, as they brought up their arms to defend their themselves from the winds, yet they kept sliding back inch by inch. "Well then, shall we begin?" the saiyan asked, causing the former demon to shake with concern for himself and his student.


The fight with the three saiyans has began. Raditz fell to the leader of the group, while the others are having a tough time on their own. Can Goku arrive in time to save the day? Will the Z-Fighters urvive this fateful battle for the Earth's safety? Find out on the next chapter of "Changed Path"...

Hey everyone, another week, another chapter. This one was hard to write, as I am still having a hard time with writing the fights. While I didn't use Harodan3's tips yet, I think this was a major improvement than the last ones. Please tell me in the comments what you guys think about the first part of the saiyan battle.

Now, just to make thing clear, in my story Krillin has a crush on Bulma. I always thought that was the case since I saw the Garlic Junior Saga where he was dating Marron, who looked a lot like her in hair color in the anime. Also the reason Chiaotzu did a lot of damage to Nappa was because he use offensive magic, which you need mana to defend against.

Now for power levels!

Power levels:

Raditz: 15,500

Vegeta: 20,000 (yeah, I lifted his power by a bit)

Nappa: 8,300

Bryco: 9,800

Piccolo: 6,280

Gohan: 4,400

Tien: 5,990

Krillin: 4,605

Yamcha: 4,570

Chiaotzu: 3,100

Yajirobe: 3,510

R&A:

R: This chapter was good, in more ways than one. It felt more grounded in Z when compared to the last chapter, not that last chapter was bad. Everything seems to be coming together nicely and I can't wait to see where it goes next.

Raditz's whole bit about being a Saiyan at the beginning of the chapter was good and it showed you everything that you need to know about his pride and will as a Saiyan. Seeing him get redemption for the last chapter later on was good as well, his power increase was sizable, but also reasonable. Can't wait to see what he does later.

Seeing the humans so strong heading into the battle with the Saiyans gives me a good feeling. With Raditz and Piccolo the Saibamen aren't going to be too much a problem, though Nappa could still take Piccolo and until Goku shows up Vegeta could pretty much put Raditz down in a one on one. I really like the way it is going.

And the end of the chapter was good. Ready or not, here the Saiyans come! Let's go!

A: Well, I hope this chapter didn't disappoint you. I think the humans did much better against Nappa without Piccolo, as he and Gohan were fighting Bryco. When it came to Raditz, you were right, but I still wanted to show that he could at least hit Vegeta, even if he lost horribly.

By the way, did Luke read chapters 2-8? I hope he has the time because I want to hear his opinions as well. Thanks for the tips, I might use them in the future. Have a nice week and see you in Destiny Shattered.

R: 75,000 was not really BULLSHIT

Krillen potential was recently unlocked by Guru.. The battle with the Ginyu Force brought out more of Krillen's Power out to surface..

Also please do not be Immature With Super.. Some parts of it suck.. But it brings interesting Concept and give is a Better Understanding of how Godly Ki and How important Ki Control is... Yes it is your story but you need more Open Minded and understanding of themes Dragon ball Super.. Like every Anime a True Fan have to understand Both Good thing and themes of the Show and the Bad things and Stupid Cliches of show.

It Much better then Gt. It has so much potential.. But the Writers wasted that potential.. I think you what I,am talking about... To Goku Centered.. Pan potential wasted, Goten potential wasted.. All the hype of Uub being Goku's Successor... BULLSHIT...Trunks potential wasted.. They tried to hard to make to it too much like the Original Dragon ball... Goku in a Sense is. Childish at times.. Making him a Child was a Stupid move.

Regarding The Destro Disk .. It is true It can potentially Kill Foes many times stronger then the user.. But there is limit to that.. It is still a Ki Techinue.. And like Technique it can be negated if the Foe is prepared.

Vegeta Blocked Goku Black's Blade with his Arm... Because Vegeta's Aura Blocked The Blade.. If you look look at the Filler where Gohan Blocked Cell attack with his Aura as well...

Filler Scenes are not Canon.. But they still imporatant.. Look at Goku using the Super Kaio Ken against Pinion and look at Super Saiyan Blue Kaio Ken... Look at Garlic Jr and look at Damask. Look at SS2 Gohan blocking The Destro Disk with his Aura and compare to Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta blocking Goku Black's Blade composed of Godly Ki.

It is Obvious the Writers remembered these Filler Scenes and took the concepts of it and applied it to Super.

Kaio Ken

Immortality

Using and focusing your Aura to block a Technique that sharpens ki..

If one can sharpen their Ki.. Then It is possible to harden ones Aura to block piercing or sharpen attacks like what Vegeta did.

A: About Krillin in the Namek Saga, I can accept your explanation. Now you are 100% correct about GT. Goku Time was nothing but incredibly wasted potential, and I have changed my opinions on Super, at least a little. I can accept that the Black arc is probably the best written arc in DB history and that Zamasu is the most complex villain ever written in the franchise, but I still hate him the most out of all villains.

Let me tell you about Zamasu, he is the most complex and best written villain when it comes to his story and own contradicting dumb phylosophy, but his dialog is completely unbearable, and to show you why, I will compare him to thefrost demons. When ever they fight Goku they always have the same one dimensional dialog of "dirty monkey this, dirty monkey that" mantra, which is nsufferable and annoying in my opinion, as Frieza had great dialog for a simple villain prior to his fights.

You see, Frieza stands for a simple villain, while Zamasu stands for complexity, but both share the same mantra in a way, with Zamasu's "me, me, me, diry mortal this, dirty mortal that, me, me, me" mantra which I can't stand. Because of this I can watch the current arc, despite being very good storywise.

In conclusion, thank you for making me think of why I dislike Super that much, and I would say it is now become better than GT thanks to the story and character development of the Zamasu Arc.

R: Please Keep Nappa Alive or eventually revive Nappa..

Strangely in sense Nappa in Saiyan Saga at least had stronger sense of loyalty to his Comrades.. Vegeta Killed him with no regards..

If you look at Super Vegeta and Tagoma are much alike.. They both became More Cruel and Cynical under Frieza's Influence.

Tagoma Killed Shishma(The Red Dude) with no regards just in a attempt to kill Gohan.. While Vegeta killed Nappa just because he could no longer Fight,

While Nappa is in fact Evil.. He has Displayed more Normal Saiyan Behaivor then Vegeta who was influenced by Frieza.. Saiyans while typically Merciless.. They normally have Strong Bonds with those they Always Fight alongside with... Look at shock Nappa Displayed when Vegeta killed one of the Sabimen for Losing.. Him bringing up the wish to Revive Radtiz, Him expressing Shock and Horror when Vegeta was about to Kill him.

Because of Frieza influence.. Vegeta was Evil.. Even by Saiyan's Standards

In the Saiyan Saga Vegeta was Immoral and Monstrous then Nappa... and look at Vegeta know in Super.

I would imagine The Reformed Vegeta would regret killing Nappa the way he did.

A: Sorry, no spoilers. If you read this chapter, you see Nappa is slightly similar to his TFS counterpart, but only slightly, and Bryco, my OC saiyan, is a character that likes the term of honor. This is all I will say. Thank you for reviewing and keep reading my story.

Now that R&A is over, it is time to end it for this week. Bye bye everyone.
