Previously on Dragonball AS:
It seemed like Piccolo had Frieza on the ropes but unfortunately for the Namekian Frieza had one final transformation! Neris has also once more transformed into the Pseudo Super Saiyan form! Can she beat Frieza with the new Zenkai boost she got from her previous fight? Or will she be able to just hold him off til Goku returns? Find out now!
Neris rushed at Frieza throwing a side kick as Frieza side stepped her. Neris immediately continues her attack by throwing an uppercut grazing Friezas chin with the back of her hand as he backstepped away from her.
"Ggh!" Frieza hissed gritting his teeth as Neris began to send a barrage of punches and kicks at Friezas body as he blocked each and everyone with his hands, eventually trapping both of Neris arms to the sides. Neris growled, kneeing him in the stomache then doing a side sweep to send Frieza flying several yards. Neris formed a Mystic Flasher in one arm to full power and throws the blast with all her strength at the tyrant.
The blast seemingly hits Frieza with a explosion of light. Neris continues to send ki blast after ki blast relentlessly after Frieza repeatedly continuing her onslaught as an explosion of smoke and mini explosions go off where Frieza was.
Just then Frieza is seen, flying through the blasts like they were nothing, dodging and weaving in between the blasts as he flies towards the female Saiyan. Neris grits her teeth, abandoning the blasts as she backs away from the lizard and taking off flying in the opposite direction with Frieza in hot pursuit.
The group quickly dodges the ki blasts as they fly through the air uncontrolled, destroying many random islands surrounding the area.
Vegeta continued to watch both in awe, and anger as he felt the hairs on the hairs on the back of his neck stand and a cold shiver crawl up his spine at the immense power Neris had as she and Frieza were toe to toe with one another and Neris seemingly able to hold her own.
'Unbelievable! She's got so much power that she doesn't even know about til she snapped and lost her head! And SHE'S the Super Saiyan in progress?!' Vegeta thought, 'But how, how is she the Legendary Super Saiyan and not ME?! The Prince of all the Saiyans!? How did she do it?! I have to know!'
Vegeta turned to Piccolo. "EXPLAIN NAMEKIAN! How did she get the transformation!? What's her secret!?" He demanded.
Piccolo didn't turn or even glance at him as he also watched the two battle it out. Frieza was easily countering and dodgng her attacks, knowing that eventually the form would wear off soon, as he remembered seeing when he'd fought her before. Neris had turned shooting ki blasts as Frieza continued to catch up to her before throwing another kick at the tyrant as he dodged, Neris made a chopping motion as she took a swipe at Friezas arms as he ducked below her, glancing up he sent Death Beams at her from his eyes, as they grazed her scarf around her neck, lightly nicking her on the right cheek.
Neris let our a roar in anger as Frieza made a swipe at her grabbing her by the hair. Neris winced as Frieza kneed her in the ribs hard making her scream in pain. As Frieza released her,letting her drop several feet before she flew back at Frieza in a explosion of golden aura, both fists out in front of her as she flew towards Frieza feinting an attack as he believed she was about to throw herself into his stomache, before at the last second she swerved tightly to the right when he sent more death beams at her.
"WHAT!?" Frieza shouted as Neris went behind him, letting herself drop as she slammed both her feet onto Friezas spine sending him falling to the Namekian waters as a huge splash was heard and a tidal wave blew up about 500 feet into the air.
"I don't know how she did it Vegeta. It was just..a burst of anger that seemed to have trigger the transformation." Piccolo stated, his arms crossed as he saw Frieza fall.
"Anger…? What do you mean!?" Vegeta demanded again, losing his patience.
"The pain of Loss. That's what triggered it." Piccolo said, "Although, I don't think Neris has fully grasped how to control herself in this form quite yet. That's the only downside of the form. And that its temporary."
'Pain of Loss?! What the hell…!' Vegeta thought gritting his teeth as he tried to figure out what he meant.
Frieza burst out of the water as he flew at Neris again. Neris was prepared however as she'd brought her hand high above her head forming another energy ball as it grew to the size of a small planetoid. Neris brought her hand down when Frieza had gotten to close, making sure he wouldn't be able to dodge the blast as she fired it, Friezas eyes widened as the blast had hit its target pushing Frieza back down to the ground.
"Ggggh….! AAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGH!" Frieza screamed as he struggled against the beam.
Neris gritted her teeth pushing the beam back with all her strength. "NNNH…..RRRRRRRRRRRRH!"
Frieza was now about 3 feet from hitting the ground as the FSSJ began to wear off again, the golden aura around her vanishing. Frieza increased his power to about 5% as he pushed the blast back at Neris.
Neris pupils had returned, as she was beginning to return to base form as she saw the blast coming at her at high speeds.
At the final second, Piccolo fired a ki blast of his own at the massive blast Neris had sent, rebounding the blast once again away from the Saiyan as it just narrowly missed Neris, flying to the right side of her and exploding about 500 feet away from where Neris was.
"Thanks Pap-" Neris began and stopped herself remembering she no longer had a papa anymore and sulked hating that she almost called this stranger her 'papa.'
"Hmph, to think you Saiyan would be able to transform again so soon. But I've had enough playing around with you monkeys!" Frieza said, glaring at Neris, as he put his arms behind his back. "I don't know how the hell you have survived this long on this rock, but I cannot allow another Saiyan to go on living. You, the boy and Vegeta must all DIE!"
"Hrrr…!" Neris gritted, raising her arms in a fighting stance.
"It seems we have no other choice then..We must fight all at once if we are to survive! No matter how strong he is, surely he can't defend against the 5 of us!" Piccolo said wincing slightly from the after effects of the Kaioken attack. "Regardless for how you feel about me, we have to work as a team!" Piccolo said as he flew closer to Neris.
"I know…" Neris pouted as Gohan too went by Neris' and Piccolos' sides as Dende hid behind a mountain.
Krillin watched nervously, as he worked up his courage to join them but Vegeta grabbed his wrist keeping him back. "H-Hey! Vegeta, what're you doing!? Let me go damnit!" Krillin said turning to Vegeta as he tried to escape but Vegeta held firm.
"As if you could make any difference baldy!" Vegeta retorted spinning Krillin around as he grabbed his other arm.
"EEP!" Krillin said shaking in his suit and armor.
"But, you CAN do something useful and that is to give me a fatal wound! Right now!"
"Wh-What?! What the hell are you talking about!?" Krillin said, still terrified.
'If that female Saiyan could transform into something almost like a Super Saiyan, then there's completely no reason that I, the Saiyan Prince, can't do it as well! And better than Argula ever could! I WILL make that form mine once and for all! There has to be something more than what the slug told me..perhaps..maybe just once or twice more, if I come back from the brink of death, I may get a finalized version of the Legendary form!' Vegeta thought in his head as sweat poured from his forehead.
"HYAH!" Gohan shouted charging at Frieza as he threw a kick at him,Piccolo and Neris followed suit each attacking Frieza from different sides as Frieza dodged. Neris was just slightly a bit or way faster than the others however due to the many Zenkais she'd experienced as she brought Frieza away from Piccolo and Gohan, and managed to keep up with the icejin. Even as Piccolo forced his body to continue despite the pain as the Kaioken threatened to tear apart his body, and increasing it to KKx3 both he and Neris fought toe to toe with Frieza with Gohan taken aback realizing just how far the two had left him.
"Listen to me! You've seen how we Saiyans can get stronger from coming back from near death! It's the only way we can stand any chance here til Kakarot returns to the battle! Besides the female, I am also the only Saiyan here with any kind of battle expert ability! Beat me to within an inch of my life! It won't work if I do it to myself!" Vegeta snapped grabbing Krillin by the collar.
"Wh-B..But with my power I can't….!" Krillin stammered.
"Don't worry about that! I'll lower my battle power to the bare minimum! All you have to do is hit me with everything you've got! It's a good thing you brought that Namekian brat here when you did who can instantly heal any wounds! Do it now before Frieza takes notice of us! While they have him distracted!"
Neris does a roundhouse kick as she sent Frieza flying upwards.
Piccolo begins to back off firing a Chasing Bullet ki blast at Friezas back as he's firing upwards. With Gohan following up with another Masenko from Friezas front.
Frieza afterimages, as the blasts cross one another hitting the image Frieza had left behind as he vanished.
"Ah! Where'd he go?!" Gohan asked.
"THERE! GOHAN WATCH OUT!" Neris said panicking as Frieza had appeared behind Gohan firing a deathbeam at the toddler.
Neris turned on her heel as she dove after Gohan, shoving him out of the way as she leapt up, narrowly dodging the beam herself as Gohan fell to the floor facefirst. "OW!"
Neris and Piccolo saw as the deathbeam was lead astray as it hit a mountain, making it explode.
Krillin turned his head seeing the mushroom cloud form where the mountain had been as his eyes lit up with pure terror.
"NOW DO YOU SEE WHAT WE'RE UP AGAINST!? DO IT NOW YOU COWA-!"
Vegeta'd stopped talking as he was hit in the chest by a huge ki blast Krillin had fired as the beam had gone completely threw him. Neris, Piccolo and Gohan'd turned watching as the Saiyan Prince went down as a large trail of blood followed where he fell.
"GAHACK!" Vegeta coughed up blood as his lips curled into a smile. "Th...That's...m..more..like it...asshole…"
"V-Vegeta!" Gohan and Neris shouted.
"Krillin! What the hell!?" Piccolo shouted.
Frieza smirked as he stood his tail twitching with glee. "It would seem fear truly does rive people to insanity! Ally against ally, just the way I like it! Ohohoho!" Frieza laughed, raising a hand to his lips.
Krillin, while keeping Vegetas words to heart about how Saiyans do get stronger from coming back from near death and realizing how strong Neris had gotten, flies over to Gohan as he gets up again and too, blasts Gohan in the chest doing the same thing to him as he does Vegeta.
Gohans eyes widened in alarm as the blast goes through him coughing up blood as well. Neris watches in shock before grabbing Krillin by the shoulder slamming him onto the ground. "WHY!? WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO HIM!?" Neris screamed in pure horror.
"GOHAN!" Piccolo cried out, as he rushed to the boys side cradling him in his arms. Krillin could almost feel the look of betrayal everyone was giving him as he wanted to tell them Vegetas plan but he couldn't not wanting Frieza to overhear.
"H-Hey! Forget about me, just fight that Frieza guy!" Krillin said.
Neris gritted her teeth shaking in fury, as every cell in her wanted to beat the absolute crap out of Krillin for what he did to her friend. She could feel Piccolo beside her feeling the same way as he held Gohan in his arms as both of them tried to process in their minds about what just happened.
"OHOHOHOHOHO!" Friezas laugh broke out, cutting through the tension like a hot knife through butter. Piccolo, Neris, and Krillin glanced towards him and over their shoulders to see Frieza clutching his stomache and laughing his ass off rolling on the ground in laughter.
Neris was visibly shaking in anger as she was torn between two choices, beating Krillin or wanting to tear Frieza apart for laughing. Piccolo was seemingly beginning to calm down as Gohan had apparently put two and two together and realized why Krillin had attacked him as he whispered to Piccolos ear.
"Neris calm down!" Piccolo said to Neris, "Forget him, just focus your energy on Frieza!"
"B-But…!" Neris said, still pinning Krillin to the ground, as Krillin yelled grabbing her arm trying to get her off. "He hurt Gohan! An...And Vegeta! He's a traitor!"
"I SAID LEAVE HIM BE!" Piccolo snapped. "DON'T WASTE ANYMORE TIME NERIS!"
Neris flinched, gritting her teeth before reluctantly releasing Krillin. "Fine...he's not even worth my time anyways." Neris pouted.
Krillin stood up nervously as he rubbed his shoulder.
Vegeta stayed, laying on the ground while clutching his wound, wondering when the hell the fight would continue so he can get to Dende, as he bided his time. "G..get..on..with it..already…!" Vegeta cursed, not daring to move.
It took Frieza near 2 entire minutes to recover from having a laughing stroke. He was still giggling from time to time as he regained his composure and wiped his eyes as tears had formed from laughing so hard. "Oh...Oh! You all crack me up! I love being so good at my job!"
"You...big..JERK!" Neris growled charging into battle again, as Krillin followed helping Neris to distract Frieza.
Piccolo began to stand, still cradling Gohan in his arms as he rushed him over to Dendes side. Vegeta'd hazily gotten up again as he too, limped to where Dende was hiding.
"Hang in there Gohan...Dende will come heal you soon!" Piccolo said, trying to sound as calm as he could.
"I...I know..he will...M..Mr. Picc...olo…" Gohan winced, both hands over his wounds as he tried to stop the bleeding.
Piccolo had gotten to Dende first, putting Gohan in front of him. "Hey, is it really true you can heal any wounds?"
"Yes of course! I'll take care of him right away!" Dende said as he prepared to heal Gohan.
"Good. Then I'll be back to bring Vegeta here." Piccolo said turning to leave.
"N-NO! I don't want to heal him!" Dende said stubbornly, "He's killed Namekians too!"
"I understand why you don't wanna heal him but we need Vegeta's help here." Piccolo said patiently.
"B-But…! He's the same as Frieza! I won't do it!" Dende said shaking his head furiously. "I won't! I won't! I won't!"
"Please.. Just do it. If I wanted I can kill Vegeta whenever I wanted. But not Frieza. It's the only way."
"STAY AWAY FROM ME YOU TRAITOR!" Neris voice rung out as she repeatedly refused any kind of help from Krillin.
"B-But...Neris..!" Krillin said as he kept trying to intervene in their fight, trying to go for a Solar Flare to blind Frieza so Neris could actually get a hit in on the icejin, but Neris kept shoving Krillin away intervening with the attack. "Let me help you! He's too fast for you to keep up with him, even if your nearly equal to his power now!"
"I SAID NO!" Neris shouted firing a Mystic Flasher at Krillin.
Frieza decided to take this chance with Neris being distracted and distraught, as he snuck up behind her trapping her in a bubble. Neris realized she'd been paralyzed as she slowly struggled to turn her head back seeing Frieza was there.
"N-NO!" Neris cried. "C...Crap…! I...I can't...MOVE!"
"Ah! N-NERIS!" Krillin said, in shock.
"HAHAHA!" Frieza laughed as he began dribbling the ball on his tail, bouncing it. "Aw, whatsamatter monkey!?" Frieza sneered, kicking the ball high into the air only to teleport to where it flew so he could catch it again simply.
"AUGH!" Neris grimaced, still trapped in the ball before glaring at Frieza again. "Hohoho…! If this ball touches anything but me it WILL explode. And you might die." Frieza smirked, shooting the ball in the air again before spiking it back down to the ground with his tail.
"AAAAAAAAUGGGH!" Neris screamed, as Frieza teleported once more behind her catching the ball and spiking it back.
This time happened several times, with Frieza basically playing volleyball with himself as he continued ping ponging the ball back and forth as Krillin could only watch helplessly in terror. Once Frieza had gotten a bit bored he caught the ball one final time, as he aimed the ball toward the ground. "Well this has been time. This time you WILL die now!" Frieza laughed as he fired the ball.
"GAAAAAAAAH!" Neris screamed as she was still trapped as the ball collided with an island 4 miles away where the others were as a loud BOOM filled the area, warping the planet.
Dende and the others covered their faces with their arms as everyone was momentarily blinded by the light that had eclipsed that part of the planet as a massive gust of wind blew from where the blast hit, and smoke and debris and shrapnel was sent flying all over the place.
Another mushroom cloud formed going past the clouds as the eruption ended and things had begun to calm down as everyone gagged catching their breathes, slowly everyone turned their head to see the aftermath of the battle, seeing the massive crater easily covering about a 500 foot radius that looked to be as big as an entire continent slowly begin to fill with water.
"Ah...Ah…!" Dende stammered as it began to set in just how strong Frieza was. "N...Neris…!" Dende stuttered, "I...I don't even sense her chi anymore!"
"Damnit….!" Piccolo cursed as the Nail inside him, took over Piccolos main personality as it drove Piccolos body to fly immediately to where he estimated Neris body had landed to see if anything was even left. "DENDE YOU BETTER HEAL VEGETA NOW! IT'S THE ONLY WAY!" Piccolo screamed as he rushed to where the crater was.
Dende rushed over as soon as he finished healing Gohan, as he flew over to where Vegeta had blacked out and began healing him.
Krillin noticed Piccolo coming, and saw Frieza about to shoot a deathbeam his way when Krillin brought two fingers to his forehead and shouted, "SOLAR FLAAAARE!" blinding Frieza as he fired the death beam completely missing Piccolo.
"Thanks Krillin!" Piccolo shouted as panic set in as he circled the crater trying desperately to find "his child." There, lying under several rocks and boulders was where Piccolo had finally found Neris unconscious body. Directly in the center of the crater where it was most deepest, he saw her head and her sticking out from under the rubble and where the water was rushing the fastest towards. Piccolo dived headfirst snatching her by the hand as he quickly and roughly pulled her out of the rubble before lifting her so he could carry her in both arms. "NERIS! Are you alright?! Hang on!"
Krillin saw Frieza starting to get his eyesight back, as he formed a destructo disk in one arm as he watched Piccolo and Neris get safely away before firing it.
Frieza had gotten his sight back as he only just barely dodged the disk as it nicked off the tip of his tail clean off. "AUGH! MY TAIL!" Frieza screamed in pain.
Elsewhere, Vegeta had finally gotten up as he was healed completely, his power level now matching to that of Neris was currently due to the active threat theory, reaching to about 20x its original power. Vegeta stood, getting to his power as he stared at his hands in silence before kicking Dende away.
"Damned twerp! Be grateful I didn't kill you for taking so long!" Vegeta roared as he turned his head to where Frieza was giving chase to Krillin in anger.
"Hmph..Good none of thems killed Frieza yet, now then...Let's see if I too have transformed at last!" Vegeta smirked.
Piccolo rushed to where Dende and Vegeta was, landing on the ball of his foot.
"NERIS!" Gohan cried out, "Is she okay!?"
"Dende can you…?"
"Yes of course! Lay her down in front of me Piccolo!" Dende said standing up.
Vegeta flew to where Frieza was, stopping him from near killing Krillin. "Hold it right there Frieza! You're going to be fighting ME now! For you see, I've finally evolved into that of a Super Saiyan!" Vegeta sneered, clenching his fist.
Frieza stopped staring at Vegeta in utter disbelief at what he was hearing. "Oh, do you mean that silly temporary form that female has used on my twice now? Don't make me laugh Vegeta! I didn't know you liked to tell jokes!"
"Who's joking Frieza?! You're looking at a warrior. AFTER I KILL YOU MYSELF!" Vegeta shouted, as he bursted into False SSJ at will and charged at Frieza.
Frieza seemed to be unimpressed as he merely dodged him, afterimaging to the side. Vegeta, saw this however as he lurched his body sharply to the side and made a chopping motion at Friezas throat.
Frieza afterimaged just once more appearing on a very tiny island 300 feet where Vegeta was. "Tell me Vegeta, how the hell did you just come back from being half dead!? Don't tell me you used the dragons wish on yourself for immortality!"
"Hah, wouldn't you like to know?!" Vegeta smirked rushing at Frieza again in a burst of golden aura.
This went on for a long while, with Frieza dodging and Vegeta just barely keeping up even with access to the FSSJ state now, he could just barely keep up with him. About halfway through their fight Frieza had noticed Dende healing Neris and Neris going back to full strength as she began to stand up. 'Hmph..So that's how it is…' Frieza thought as he continued to fly over the group as he and Vegeta continued their 'fight.'
Vegeta charged at Frieza again shooting a kick as Frieza appeared above the Prince, and fired 2 deathbeams. Vegeta smirked as he dodged the beams thinking they were meant for him as he heard an explosion behind him followed by a "NO!"
"Wha?" Vegeta asked turning his head to see the beams had killed Dende their healing source they'd been relying on til now. Everyone was in shock as no one had been able to see the beams at that moment, not even the just healed Neris who was not even completely healed yet, just to the point so she was aware as they stared, mouth open at the death of their fallen comrade.
"Well Vegeta… Seems you couldn't stop that one could you mister "Super Saiyan." I wil give you points tho, you at least managed to keep your head on this entire time unlike the female, and managed to keep your pupils. But I'm afraid you still don't have a prayer to hold on to to keep up with MY speed. I'm sure we can all agree this Super Saiyan business is just a myth. A temporary hoax you monkeys like to tell one another over the campfire!" Frieza gloated crossing his arms and legs.
"No...Is this the best I can do!? I refuse to believe it..! I AM A SUPER SAIYAN!" Vegeta shouted firing a Big Bang type of attack at Frieza.
Everyone could feel the massive amount of energy Vegeta had just fired from his hands as they all shook with terror.
"N-No way! Is Vegeta trying to take the planet along with him!? DON'T DO IT VEGETA!" Piccolo screamed.
Frieza glared leaping up to meet with the blast as he kicked it away. The blast just going past Vegetas face and nose touching it by a mere centimeter as he could only watch as the ki blast went harmlessly into the sky.
Vegeta was left shaking in fear as he saw all the power he had released, snuffed out like a candle and along with it, so did his spirit and will for battle. Vegeta looked down at the icejin as he finally felt true fear and hopelessness for the first time in his life.
"H...He deflected it with a kick…! That must have been Vegetas full power! W...We can't win…!" Piccolo said.
"H..He's just too much!" said Krillin.
"No...Vegeta!" Gohan said.
"Keep..going Vegeta! Come on!" cried Neris, as she flew to go join him. Despite that she was only half healed. "Don't give up! Plea-" Neris said, and stopped as her eyes'd widened. "Y..You're…crying…?" Neris asked shocked.
Indeed Vegeta was crying as for the first time in his life, he'd truly felt utter despair, tears had formed at the corner of Vegetas eyes. This shocked Neris, and left her speechless, even though she'd only known Vegeta in such a short time, seeing Vegeta crying had shook her body to its core as she too realized what Vegeta must have been feeling.
Neris had reached for Vegetas cheek, to comfort him without even realizing it. But before she could touch the saiyan prince Neris saw Frieza right in front of her all of a sudden, as a trail of blood left Vegetas mouth she realized Frieza must have headbutted the Saiyan prince as he got sent flying skyward.
Vegetas body had gone limp as Frieza continued to trash him, sending Vegeta spiraling back towards the ground with a CRASH!
Neris saw that Vegeta didn't even try to move even a finger as Frieza landed above him, as he slowly wrapped his tail around Vegeta's throat and lifted him off the ground.
"G….Get up…! VEGETA, GET UP! FIGHT BACK!" Neris cried out watching in terror. "DON'T LET HIM BEAT YOU DOWN LIKE THIS! WHERE'S YOUR SAIYAN PRIDE?!" Neris screamed, trying to get through to Vegeta.
Vegeta was still limp as Frieza made a fist and punched Vegetas spine making him cough up blood in agony.
"VEGETAAAAAAAAA!" Neris screamed louder. "COME ON YOU GUYS!? WHY AREN'T ANY OF YOU ALL HELPING HIM!?" Neris said turning to the others. "GOHAN! He's a Saiyan just like me and you, child! Are you really going to watch stand by and watch him get murdered like Dende!?" Gohan gasped, looking up at her floating there. Gohan lifted his foot wanting to go help Vegeta, but felt Piccolo hold him back.
"It's no use...Vegeta has lost his will to live. Nothing can reach him now…" Piccolo stated.
The young boy took a look at him, then turned his head again back to Neris, then at Vegeta as Frieza continued to use Vegetas limp body and spine as a personal punching bag.
Neris got angrier and angrier as she clenched her fists harder, drawing blood from her palms. "COWARDS! ALL OF YOU ARE COMPLETE COWARDS!" Neris screamed, as she charged at Frieza. "WELL, VEGETA EVEN IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LIVE ANYMORE DOESN'T MEAN I HAVE TO LET JUST LET YOU GO TOO! RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!" Neris screamed as she summoned all the strength into her fist as she flew at Friezas back.
Frieza had saw this however, as he simply smirked, turned on his heal and tossed Vegetas broken and beat body at Neris sending them both flying and crashing into the side of a mountain.
"AH! N-NERIS! NO!" Gohan said, wanting to help them and trying to get out of Piccolos hold. "MR. PICCOLO!? LET ME GO!"
"NO! YOU CAN'T HELP THEM!"
Neris winced as she fell with Vegeta landing beside her as she coughed up blood, wincing as she still sustained some damage when she and the blast from before had blown up. Neris glanced up seeing Friezas shadow towering over the both of them as Vegeta lay besides her still as stone.
"Hmph..you Saiyans are all the same. How incredibly dull of you both.. I should put you both out of your misery…" Frieza said.
Neris glared up at Frieza, glancing at the group and struck that they were still frozen and still refusing to help as she knelt over Vegetas body determined to protect him. "Y...You're not...going to..get away with this…! Someday…! Someone will avenge us! You'll see!" Neris promised, clenching her fist and grabbing a fistful of the blue grass she'd known all her life.
"Oho? Face it monkey, you have nowhere else to go or left to run! You're finished!"
"You can break me..! Burn me..! Shatter every bone in my body! And I'll still beat you! If you break my arms, then I'll just kick you to death! If you break my legs, I'll shout you to death! If you break my jaw then I'll just glare at you 'til you die! And even if you poked my eyes out I'll still curse you to death! Someday, someone will stand up to the injustices you have done and will finish you! I won't allow it!" Neris yelled glaring at him.
"A...Ar..g...gul..a…" Vegeta coughed as he struggled to even turn his head only to see Neris body still completely over his own, protecting him with her own.
"How funny. Enough with your jokes, this doesn't concern you monkey. This is just between me and Vegeta." Frieza glared he stomped on her head slamming her skull into the ground, before proceeding to kick her repeatedly in the ribs and back. Neris continued to stay on all fours, reviewing to remove her body from over Vegetas determined to keep him as safe as she possibly could. Neris grunted and winced with each blow that hit her body but never once begged for mercy as she continued protecting the prince.
Vegeta could only watch as Neris took the blows meant for him, unable to more anymore as he was now paralyzed from the waist down, his spine completely broken. 'Why…? Why is she doing this for me? I've killed the Namekians you grew up with and knew while living here as well so why…?!' Vegeta thought.
Frieza lifted his foot stomping on Neris skull as he began grinding her head into the ground determined to crush her. Neris stayed, keeping her body over Vegetas hugging him as she screamed in pain, feeling her skull cracking.
"N...Neris…!" Gohan said as he turned, hiding his face in Piccolos gi."I can't watch…!" said the small child.
Just then, in a blur of orange, a 7th person had joined the scene. Everyone, including Frieza slowly turned their heads to see who had just appeared seeing it was no one other than Goku himself!.
