Hey guys! I'm back with chapter 21. Just came back from an orphanage filled with little toddlers. Soo tired…

liuxess: Master Roshi would die by the hands of Vegeta. Lol'd at the image.

"Hey Bardock!" Krillin sat down next to the saiyan, who was in the process of reading a book Gohan recommended to him to pass time. Vegeta always took up the gravity room, and Bardock did not feel the need to train yet, even though he saw himself get beaten.

"Yes?" He looked up. Krillin was slightly scared of him, though he wouldn't admit it. It was really uncanny how he and Goku looked exactly the same, save a few differences. The last time someone like that came to Earth, mayhem ensued.

"Ehh… how did you reach Super Saiyan?"

Bardock was thoughtful for awhile. "I'm not sure. I think it was because Frieza pissed me off. I do remember taking a year and a half to master it, though."

Vegeta happened to walk by and heard his reply. He snorted. "Once a low-class piece of trash, always a low-class piece of trash."

Bardock's ears picked it up. "What did you say?" he asked, his voice dangerously low.

"You heard me, or are your ears deaf?" Vegeta taunted.

Bardock let out a growl and punched him in the jaw, making his head snap up. Blood trickled down his chin, and he wiped the crimson liquid away, staining his glove pink. He glanced at it, and then roared in anger. "You made me bleed, scum!"

Bardock smirked. "You asked for it, Prince. Oh, wait, you don't know yet. The saiyans don't need you. They've got their own Prince Vegeta, a little one who's even stronger than Gohan."

"What?" Out of fury and wounded pride Vegeta fazed behind Bardock and delivered a knee strike, making him stumble a few steps.

"Umm… guys? Maybe you should take this to the gravity room. We're going to be in big trouble if both of you wreck the ship," Krillin stated nervously. Bardock, who still had self control over himself, nodded and stalked toward the direction, with Vegeta trailing behind.

Once they reached inside, Vegeta turned the gravity up to 500. Caught off guard, Bardock fell to his knees, his breath whooshing out.

"Can't take it, weakling?"

Of course, a saiyan could take several insults without breaking his or her control, but when called weakling (and monkey), he or she would snap. That is, if said saiyan had a bad temper. However, a milder one would still get very, very angry.

That is why Bardock immediately turned super saiyan and began attacking Vegeta mercilessly. Vegeta smirked, dodging a few blows, then turned super saiyan himself. He exchanged blows with the older saiyan for awhile, and then noticed that he was getting exhausted, while Bardock was still full of energy. If the fight continued like this, soon, he would fall to the ground, energy completely depleted, and Bardock would win the fight. So, he decided to change from head-on assault to ki blasts.

Vegeta back flipped three times, then yelled, "Big Bang Attack!" Bright blue energy flew out of his hands and at Bardock, but he deflected it at such a short range he couldn't believe his eyes.

The older saiyan smirked and launched his attack, Heat Phalanx. What seemed like bright, ruby flames flew at him, and because of the ki blast Vegeta just did, he didn't have enough energy to dodge it.

Bardock fazed behind Vegeta and twisted his left arm, causing the prince to cry out in pain.

"Say you give up, then I'll release my hold," Bardock snarled.

Vegeta's pride would never let him give up on anything. "Never!"

"I could kill you."

"So be it then. The others will not trust you."

Bardock sighed and delivered a sharp chop on Vegeta's neck, effectively making him black out. "Arrogant prick," he muttered angrily and slung him on his shoulder, all the while turning the gravity machine off and returning to the living room.

During the entire fight, the Z fighters had clustered around the windows and pressed their noses on the glass, watching in fascination at the battle. When Bardock came out, they cheered. Obviously, Vegeta was not the most popular person around, and it was great to see him get his butt kicked, which no one had the guts to do it, except Gohan, who often fought Vegeta because he demanded him to.

Bardock walked calmly toward the healing chambers when suddenly, a searing headache occurred…

He could only see death all round and sensed pain, despair, and hopelessness. There was a bright pillar of light, some kind of angel descending upon them? She spoke clearly, her voice full of sadness, but with a tinge of hope. There were gasps, and Bardock knew that voice from somewhere. The majestic manner of the angel reminded him also of something. It was on the tip of his tongue, but he just can't remember…

And he woke up to find himself on the floor with Vegeta next to him. Oops, he must've dropped him when the vision occurred.

Gohan and Mirai were peering anxiously at him. "What did you see?" Gohan asked urgently, no doubt hoping that this time, it would have nothing to do with Videl.

"It was nothing you need to be worried about," Bardock replied and heard a relieved sigh. Mirai stared at Gohan curiously, wondering what he meant about the visions. How could one see the future? He was pretty sure saiyans did not possess the ability of foresight. Something must've happened to Bardock for him to receive this gift, though.

Mirai and Gohan grabbed Bardock by the arms and lifted him up.

"What happened?" Krillin said, racing over to them when he saw Bardock fainting for no reason.

"He had a vision," Gohan blurted out, then covered his mouth when he remembered that Bardock didn't want anyone to know about his past, much less his ability to see the future. Said warrior growled furiously, but there was no way for Gohan to pretend that nothing was said.

"Visions?" Krillin gasped.

"Yes, visions. Now get out of my way," he snarled and pushed them away, grabbing Vegeta and walked to the healing room.

"What's that about visions with Bardock?" Piccolo questioned. Thanks to his sharp ears, he picked up their conversation and knew his student was hiding something about the strange saiyan.

And this concludes this chapter. I'm betting that all of you are very bewildered at Bardock's new vision, but no worries. All will be revealed soon. Only Simgr101 knows what it's about… MWAHAHAHA!

DBZ trivia: Kamehameha was just a random name Toriyama-sensei's wife thought up, so it didn't come from Kame Hametzu Ha, or Kamehameha I (check your history textbook if you don't know this dude).
