Chapter 11:Coincidence or Not
l...l...l...l...l...l
L/E: Pythor transformed into a giant snake. Radix was almost killed by the Snake-Lizard, but was saved by the giant. As the giant almost succumbed to the toxic gases of the snake he was saved by a huge energy attack.
l...l...l...l...l...l
"Boy!" Was the call last heard by Radix as he fainted.
The large snake was totally destroyed as a huge hole in the side of Pythor was clearly visible. Green gas dissipated in to the air from its huge body.
The lizard's body has shrunk a little as more gas left its huge person until the process stopped and he was half the size he was.
Bardock again called out to the boy, "Radix!."
No response came from him, he must be unconscious or sleeping. He laid faced down on the ground.
Bardock wondered what happened here, in the distance near a space pod he saw a body, 'Beetru' his inner thoughts ringed.
As he scans the area he saw his pack's space pods totally destroyed leaving the white paint, of the original objects, burned to a blackish pile of rubble.
He saw the signs of battle a few large and smaller craters. He strode over to the woman. The giant seems scared of him and so the large creature kept his distance.
No doubt if Bardock hadn't shown up, he didn't know what would have happened with the giant.
'What kind of place is this, for a dark and isolated location a lot seemed to happen here.' Bardock speculated as he glanced over the barren red land on his way to the woman that was now a few feet away from him.
He came to a halt as soon as he was standing over the beautiful saiyan mistresses body. She's also unconscious, looking quite peaceful.
They really put up a fight, he saw four burned corpses scattered over different places.
He turned his attention to the only other conscious being, the over large humanoid, "what happened here?"
He waited for a response maybe he didn't hear him, again he request the same the same information with more verbal force, "WHAT HAPPENED HERE?"
The giant backed away, with a confused look an his face, Bardock would not have this, he closed the gap between them as he strode forward towards the scared looking creature.
The giant was really in an uncomfortable position. He turned tail and sprinted of towards the other giants, inside their underground cave.
Bardock didn't have time for this he shot an energy blast straight at the back of the giant to get his attention, but it only made it worse.
As soon as the purple energy impacted on the giant's back, he shrieked and that same time, a dear creature in the woods, eyes widened at the sound of the giant.
The giant disappeared into the giant hole in the ground.
'He seems useless, but what was he doing here?' Bardock pondered.
He grabbed the two saiyans and flew of to his space pod. He laid them softly on the surface of the dark red planet.
He didn't know what to do, so he waited for one of them to regain consciousness.
For what seemed like hours finally Radix came by. Dazed and a bit light headed he sat up. His vision was still blurry trying to make out the red sand of Aphotic.
He was feeling tired, he felt as if he was stung by a thousand needles and than got ran over by a vehicle. He didn't recall what happened just yet, but he know he had better days.
Bardock detected his movements. So he came walking up to him leaving his spot at the nearby rocks, where he waited for one of them to wake up.
"Hey, boy what happened here?" Bardock asked in his usual rough voice, he couldn't tone it down even if he wanted to.
He was happy to get a chance to talk to the young warrior again. He rarely shows the emotion of happiness, but this situation was not how he imagined to be reunited with his pack again.
'A dream, am I dead' was the first thoughts rushing to the young saiyan warrior's mind at the appearance of his teacher and pack leader.
Suddenly everything came back to him, his sister, the snake, the giant. He wanted to quickly get up and be on his guard, but such movements weren't possible in his current condition.
Bardock come closer helping him stand. "You didn't reply to my messages so I came looking for you guys, so what happened here?" Bardock explained and asking the question for what seemed to him like the hundredth time.
"Bardock?" The young man asked in disbelief, he wasn't dreaming nor was he dead, he could feel Bardock and feel pain, so this is reality he concluded.
"I...I... Huh, We were attack by that snake monster, I mean how did you came here, we thought you were dead or at least, How?" Radix asked and exclaimed, trying to make sense of everything.
Though he felt pain, he couldn't masked the happy expression on his face. His hero is alive and they were back together again like old times. A month of uncertainty finally flooded away from him.
"I survived and got a new ship from Revlo. What happened to you sister?" Was the next question on Bardocks list. He knew the young man had a lot of questions himself, but Bardock's questions was much more important.
His sister, and after everything that happened he realized once more that his sister was still in trouble, "Bee, Bee! Bee" the young saiyan shouted turning around on the search for his older sister.
She was still laying motionless on the ground not moving, only slow breath can be detected as her stomach moved up and down. Sh has been out for almost five hours now. She looked like someone just in a nice deep sleep, but that was further from the real truth that they didn't know..
"She got hit wit toxic gas, from that snake monster and she's been like that ever since." The younger saiyan replied.
He could see some sort of concern on Bardock's face. Bardock never taking his eyes of the saiyan woman, said "why don't we get some food and you tell me everything.
l...l...l...l...l...l
(Back in deep space)
Vegeta and his two followers still on their way to their next mission.
The trip will take a few months, before they reach their destination and Freeza expect them back as soon as possible.
Their targeted planet's name is AZURE.
The inhabitants works mostly on medical research, but has specialized weapons and strong warriors in their infantry.
They have protected their planet well for the last couple of hundred years. They were not an easy bunch, planning and strategy must be set out to take on a specialized and evolved race like this.
Three saiyans against a million Asurians is going to be tough. The Azurians as a race doesn't live in huge different populations, they have one big capitol. To attack them you have them all in one place, which makes things easier to eliminate them.
Their planet doesn't have the natural medical resources they import supplies from different planets. It's their medical knowledge which makes them such an formidable force to be reckon with.
The secret is their technology is of high priority and class. A strong magnetic energy field protects their city and planet. They don't have any tolerance for other alien races which they have no connections with.
They only mix with the races purchasing their medical supplies and with which they purchase supplies. The saiyans was instructed in their mission script to only wipe out the inhabitants, but no medical supplies must be damage.
A few special Azurians should be captured to come work for Freeza on his planet. A spaceship will be send for them as soon as the saiyans was almost finish with their mission.
Freeza needed this planet before his brother, cooler makes a move on it or before the Azurians becomes more stronger and ultimately proves as a threat.
The average power level of an Azurian varies from 30-200 depending at their ranks and job descriptions. The soldiers will have the higher power levels, but the issue is that soldiers carries guns which can do much damage. With high level of technology this is going to be the toughest challenge yet.
Vegeta the strongest of the three saiyans, with a level of power around 9000, Nappa 4500 and the low -class saiyan, Raditz, round about 700.
(Since this is still a few years before the saiyan arc, I halved most of their power levels, because they were weaker before they came to earth , I speculated.)
Raditz has to be careful a few strikes of that powerful guns and he can be in a very serious predicament.
Vegeta was sitting in his pod contemplating and planning their attack the stasis mode was deactivated for the time being.
They were going to land on the west side of the planet to discuss their plan in detail. He sends message transmission to the other two saiyans of the landing location.
Before the could land one satellite station of the planet must be taken out, that shouldn't be a problem. This way they can protect their identity and have a safe landing on the planet without out being located.
They still had the great Ape transformation up their sleeves, but the missions requirements makes it hard for them to use the transformation.
Everything on this mission will depend on Vegeta's leadership skills.

(Planet Aphotic)
After exchanging stories and information, the two saiyans was done eating and catching up.
"Well we need to get out of here as soon as possible, boy." Bardock ended their warm reunion and conversation.
He certainly missed using the term boy, it will only be a matter of time before he would have to stop calling him that, because Radix was nearing twenty one of age.
Planet Apothic the dark planet with red sand are seeing the last of the saiyans now. He figured since Beetru and the boy was quickly discovered here, this planet can land them in some serious trouble. They have to live under the radar and so they have to leave as soon as possible back to Tentis.
They decided that they'll contact Revlo on planet Tentis for information about Beetru, who was still in a deep coma or something.
Bardock took his new space pod, still clearly white and clean except for the redness underneath as the surface of Aphotic has left its mark on the scar faced saiyans pod.
Radix placed his sister in the snake man's spaceship, which was clear from those toxic gases now. He saw a container which probably carried the gas in an open compartment.
Since their was definitely place for two people indicated by the two seats. One was a pilot seat and the other a passenger seat, it looked more roomy than the original pods.
The control system was of the old dated space pods with which they left planet Vegeta or maybe older it seems. This ship must have been created before the newer one man pods.
In a few minutes they left the Dark red planet which was their temporary safe haven from the impending doom of planet Tentis.
In the distance the large giant watch as his new friends left his planet, "Ra... dix" was the word escaping his mouth as he sadly watch the skies of gas clouds.

(Planet Tentis)
Two days past, Radix was so glad to be back on the green planet with enough sunlight, his eyes had to adjust to the extra light on the planet.
He seen some barren landscapes on the planet which wasn't there before, the were clearly created by some rocks which made it to the planets surface, but Tentis retained most of his green fields.
Almost two years has passed now and the grow and maturity of this young warrior really showed now.
He started to developed a sort of similar scowl as his mentor, Bardock. He really had to grow up, because they can find themselves in more dangerous situations and he needs to be up for the challenge.
It was because his sister was protecting him that she find herself in that position. If he was stronger and more experienced nothing like this would have ever happened.
He rally hoped his sister would be okay, Bardock had contacted Revlo about the recent events and her condition. The awaited his reply.
The system has to be encrypted and they have to wait for each other, because to much contacting and the encrypted files can be contacted by servers from Freeza's men.
The young saiyan warrior really came to like the green planet. It's like a second home now. He still thinks about the events on planet Apothic. Bardock said he handled him well, but he couldn't help but feel if Bardock hadn't shown up they might have been dead by now.
He was going to train and try and get more experience to over come his weaknesses. He couldn't even damage the snake in order to put up a competitive fight, while Bardock finished it of with one blow.
He has to work on his strength, to hit harder and put more force in his attacks, he was now determined more than ever after his first encounter with a real opponent.
But first he needed more time to rest he wants to be 100% when he begins his training.
Revlo contacted them the next day, they learned that the toxic gas was highly dangerous, but because of the saiyans strong biological system. Beetru can survive for a long time.
This was the initial information they receive from Revlo after he did some research on the snake species. They were an old race that had died because of scars prey. The snakes multiplied to much and pretty much wiped themselves out, succeeding in destroying their own planet, because of all the toxic gases that formed a chemical explosion.
Revlo contacted Bardock again in a few days with more detailed information about the saiyan woman's condition.
Bardock pressed his button on his scouter as the encrypted voice message came through.
"Bardock my friend, she is in deep trouble if you don't act fast. Though I am not a doctor I have done some research about the gas and she might die if not treated with a certain vaccine. I'll locate the vaccine and contact you again..." With a beep the transmission ended.
Bardock felt uneasy about this recent information, as he rubbed his chin figuring out what they can do for her, this sounded bad.
Bardock was contacted again on the following day with a detail plan to get a vaccine for the gas.
Getting the vaccine post a problem as he will have to go out into the galaxy which could lead to problems if he is recognized.
He had no choice he had to safe her and ensure is species survival.
Radix have to take care of her sister while Bardock searched for the vaccine.
He needed a disguise luckily their were a few robes in the snake man's spaceship. He treid a few on and settled with the dark blue one.
The robe covered is whole body, he hated this clothing, but it was the only way. He further made a hoody out of the extra material to cover his hair and parts of his face. With this disguise he can pose as a specie which is vastly known as purchers. Only problem he doesn't have capital. He needs to go in and steal it.
The older saiyan needed to go quickly and come back, they don't know how long Beetru will last. He'll be damned if she dies and he can stop it. Drastic situations calls for drastic measures.
"Boy you need to take good care of your sister, I'll be back as soon as possible. I'll take the larger spaceship, maybe I can bring back a few more important items and it is a lot quicker, if anything happens contact me from my space pod" With that said Bardock turned away to the two seater spaceship.
The young saiyan nodded in agreement. 'Good luck' was the thought Radix had in mind. It has not even been a full week and he had to say goodbye to Bardock again.
Bardock watch the saiyan as he stood outside the house they build. The hatch closed and the system projected a title on the screen in front of him, before the engines started up.
"Destinations: Azure... Azure 41'72... 44 days away" The spaceship blasted off.
l...l...l...l...l...l
AN:Power levels
Bardock: 12000
Radix: 2200
Beetru: 4500
I know their high but they've been training hard for a year on Tentis and had enough nourishment to boast their results, to me their high to so they will stay for a while like that, will update as soon as something changes.
Review please let me know how this few new chapters are going.
