The Namek Saga Part 3: The Final Battle- Part 4
Cue #1: Opening- Hero's Comeback
Cue #2: Ending-Roundabout
Kami's Lookout, a bit after Piccolo's revival and arrival to Namek,
The dimension warp for a moment as instantly two figures appeared on the palace of the now revived Earth's god. A "clank." was heard as two pairs of shoes touched the white tiles of the sky palace that had missed its ruler for two whole months.
The first was Kami and the current owner of said sky palace that decorated the blue colors of the skies with white clouds of the loveable mudball the eternally young Namekian called home. He wore his regular attire of white and dark-blue robes while holding his wooden staff. His shoes were brown as the wood in his left hand while he held a book which had a wordless cover in peeling red colored leather.
The second figure was non other than King Kai, the watcher of the northern galaxy, his black attire and headgear remaining the same as always as his index and middle finger were resting on the middle of his pale bright-blue skin. "Remember the plan Kami, this is very important!" the deity barked before disappearing in an instant.
The green skinned sage sighed with a smile on his face before he looked up to the sky and breathed the thin air into his lungs. As he exhaled he felt a presence behind him that sent a chill down his spine with an aura of joy that seemed incredibly threatening. He turned around to see the genie a blacker than black skin tone smilling with his wide red lips curved into a smile.
"Sup' man?" the djinn asked politely with happiness and joy clearly heard in his voice for the first time in many years, before he raised his fist, waiting for a fist bump from his best friend. Smilling, Kami raised his fist and bumped it against the fist of the chubby black being, much to the satisfaction of both entities. "Fantastic." Kami said with barely restrained joy coming from his voice.
About a minute of silence between the two broke when the guardian of Earth started to talk, remembering what King Kai asked of him. "Mister Popo, can you gather the dragon balls?" he asked the lookout's attendant, who was actually looked a bit confused for a moment. "Before you ask, I want to bring back everyone killed by Freeza and his men." the Namekian explained what he wanted from his friend.
The djinn smiled and pulled out some rolled joints, putting several in his mouth before snapping his fingers, lighting the edge with purple fire. "Okay," the genie said to his green skinned friend, whom immediatly sighed with relief at the prospect. "But first we are going to smoke about two months supplies of weed." Mister Popo said with a sly before handing one of the unused joints to the Earth's deity.
Laughing quietly, Kami took the rolled joint and put it in his mouth, only for his best friend to snap his fingers once more, lighting the cigar. "We definetly need to catch up, my good friend." the eternally young Namek said as he inhailed the smoke of the marijuana, feeling more relexed than ever in the last two months of the afterlife.
"Hey Kami." the guardian of Earth heard behind the chubby djinn, so he looked past his friend. What he saw was Krillin calling for him, but he was tied next to someone else, a woman who was also tied and gagged and apparantly was sleeping with a bubble coming out of her left nostril.
Shocked and horrified, the Namekian sage looked at his best friend for answers. "Mister Popo, what the hell is going on?" he said with panic in his voice. The black skinned entity smiled and waved the matter away, trying to show that it wasn't such a big deal.
"Relax Kami, it's nothing bad I promise." the djinn said calmly with a bit of an attitute of a stoner, even thou the drug could never affect the genie at all, so the etrnally young sage assumed it was just an act to calm him down. As much as he appreciated the gesture, he still wanted answers so he looked at the young tied Z-Fighter while stepping foward, with Mister Popo by his side.
The tall Namekian bent down looked at the bald noseless monk with caring eyes and a calm demeaner. "Can you tell me what happened Krillin? Please?" the guardian of Earth asked the orange clad fighter politely, making the short fighter gulp as he looked at the menacing expressionless and bland face of the djinn who tied him up.
Shaking, the student of Master Roshi started to explain the situation. "W-w-w-well Kami, a week ago this girl and her partner, both Saiyans by the way, arrived on Earth and I fought them, killing her partner." the turtle disciple told his story from all the crazy events that occured since last week, which included his first time being the protector of the planet, nervous while telling it. "So after I convinced her to join the group and defend Earth as her new home several days later, we went here to be trained by Mister Popo." he continued, still a bit uneasy about telling the story, as he had a bit of trouble containing the female Saiyan for the past week.
A slightly irritated and impatient sigh came from the djinn as he looked at the Namekian hearing the story of the current events. "In short, the girl broke the rules I set for their training, so now both are being punished." he said in a monotone tone to his voice, causing the bald human to shed a waterfall of tears with a defeated smile on his face.
A moment later the genie shifted his glare towards the sleeping Saiyan. He snapped his fingers, causing an aura of purple lighting to engulf the woman, waking her up instantly as she was zapped by the electric current.
Dozzing for a bit, it didn't take long for Archako to completely wake up and look at the djinn with jet black eyes that were full of anger.
"Hi there!" he said loudly and happily, doing a complete 180 in mood in an instant, which made Krillin continue to shed waterfalls from his eyes to the point that a small pool was starting to form around him. "Can you release me now?" she asked, wagging her brown monkey tail from left to right with excitement, her eyes twinkling in the light coming from above.
Looking at her for several seconds, the black skinned being turned around with no care in the world while smoking his joints. "No." he simply said in a monotone voice and a bland tone, remaining as chillingly cold as ever.
Shaking, the female warrior growled with irritation at her new "mentor", as she tried to struggle to escape the rope that tied her. "OH COME ON! I wanna fight! I'm really, reeeaaaaaally booored." she cried and shouted in desperation in order for the djinn to release her so she could do whatever was on her mind.
Krillin was stunned by the statement made by his new training parner, amazed by her behavior, which was ever more incredible than her "benefits". "But you just woke up! You're bored already?! This is going to be the death of me." he cried in sadness and horror, as well as defeat to his situation and life that now were held form by the attendant of the lookout.
Mister Popo turned around once more, glaring at her with his bland and expressionless face, showing he was completely serious. "No. You broke the rules, so you must be punished." he said, looking at the bald human who sat tied next to the female fighter, shaking as he went pale completely in that moment the gaze of the chubby genie landed on him, making the Z-Fighter lose contiousness out of fear.
Kami crossed his arms and looked at his best friend with a bit of disgust at how he handled the situation. "Mister Popo, this method of punishment is clearly too far. Please release them." the green skinned alien asked his friend politely, even if his patience was wearing thin, which clearly was shown in his tone and voice.
Looking back at the guardian of the planet, the genie shook his head to deny the request of his best friend. "No Kami, she has to learn the rules and the results. She needs to train as much as I see fit, eat as much as I see fit and most importantly..." he explained before shifting his expressionless gaze in his eyes towards the spiky haired woman. "no sex." he finished talking before he started to walk towards the edge of the lookout.
Hearing this, Archako in that moment suddenly snapped in an almost comedic fashion. "Well fuck you and fuck your rules too!" she shouted with comedic anger as she started to bite the air itself in a funnt way, but this statement made the black skinned being to snap his fingers, causing the aura of purple electricity to tase the female Saiyan.
"I'll go find the dragon balls." Mister Popo said before he instantly disappeared in a warp of golden light. As he disappeared, the black haired woman fell to the groung uncontious with a swirling pattern in her eyes and saliva flowing from her mouth as her tounge hit the white tiles.
Cue #1: Opening- Hero's Comeback
Warrior's Paradise, Currently,
"No! No! No! No!" the swordfish-looking deity shouted continuously with anger, concern and desperation in his voice over and over while stomping the ground with his right foot rapidly, all the while Yamcha and Chiaotzu were watching the teacher of Goku having his meltown.
The two dead Z-Fighters looked with confusion at one another as the ranting screams of "No!" came out of the furious Kai. "So where did Tien go to?" the former baseball player asked the pale skinned fighter, who just floated next to him while in front the deity kept his shouting.
Chiaotzu raised his fingers to an area that was filled with tall bushes and a sound of stream loudly bursting with force. "He went to the river to get some extra training before he gets revived." the short fighter said to his comrade as a small dust cloud started to form around them from the continuous stomping of the watcher of the northen galaxy. "Honestly when we heard how strong everyone on Namek had before, Tien got really upset and stormed out. I'm really concerned about him right now." the doll looking human said as he lowered his head.
For at least a minute they kept silent while the raging rant of their new master grew louder and louder, until Yamcha got sick of it. "Okay King Kai, what's wrong?!" he asked angrily, making the deity stop shouting for a moment before turning to him.
A vein throbbed on the kai's blue forehead as he gritted his teeth. "First of all, Goku and Raditz got the oldest Namekian killed! That means NO DRAGON BALLS! Secondly, once Earth's dragon balls will revive everyone killed by Freeza and his men could use a spell to reactivate the namekian dragon balls. However-" the northern watcher explained with anger and irritation in his voice, stomping the ground while he was talking.
"So then what's the problem?!" Yamcha asked again with frustration and anger in his voice, not allowing his new master to finish.
Another veing throbbed on the swordfish-looking deity's forehead as he clenched his fists really hard. "The problem is that the namekian dragon balls are at the bottom of the ocean! The tsunami created by Freeza's last transformation covered the land where the stone orbs were! My plan is ruined!" he roared in fury as he angrily as his stomping grew faster and faster.
Stunned, both of the Z-Fighters' eyes grew wide in shock and their jaws hit the ground.
Namek,
The tyrant's body seemed relaxed as he stood in front of the three Saiyans, his arms opened wide to his sides as he took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. His hateful stare met the enthsiastic and anticipating gaze of Son Goku, the uncomfortable yet anticipating gaze of Raditz and the utterly terrified yet still determined Gohan.
Despite the vile hatered and killing intent in his eyes, his purple lipped mouth contorted into a smile of smug arrogance and civilized joy. "Oh how marvelous, three monkey ready to die on a silver plate." he said with an arrogant, malicious and elegant tone to his voice, now with his singnature hard educated british accent that made his speech patterns so condescending.
Suddenly the three Z-Fighters heard two voices that sounded like thet were waking up. The maned Saiyan looked back to see Vegeta and Bryco getting up a bit sleepy after they finally finished healing, only to open their eyes like they were now completely awake once more, ready to fight with another zenkai boost under their belt.
As the got up, Goku turned his head and his eyes filled with glitter and amazement, as well as joy to see both of his allies waking up and ready to join in. "Brocoli! Best buddy!" he yelled in excitement as it seemed like he was about to jump from joy, much to the annoyance of everyone around.
Raditz growled in irritation but also because the concern about the monstrous power they were facing now made him tense and caused his body to be more locked and tense. "Kakarot, NOT NOW!" he shouted in anger as the tyrant in front of them started to giggle, as if he didn't want to engage them yet.
The two Saiyan warriors got up and looked at one another with dismay and anger, feeling very angry just by looking at one another. Vegeta actually then shifted his expression from an angry frown into a smug and arrogant smirk. "So it seems you got destroyed like the traitor you are, Bryco." the prince said with smug arrogance to hide his anger and to feel superior over his former comrade, making the other warrior to growl in anger.
"Don't be so high and mighty, you murderer." the spiky-haired Saiyan said to the royal elite with contained fury as he took a step towards his former leader and raised his fist in a threatening manner.
The flame-haired elite crossed his arms and laughed hysterically at the remark. "That's some hypocrisy coming from you, you honorless traitor!" the prince shouted in anger, shoving his face against the face of the taller Saiyan.
Both growled at each other and seemed like they were going to fight each other, until the palm haired warrior from Earth appeared behind both of them and put his arm around their shoulders, trying to make things cool and friendly between the two.
"Come on guys," he said calmly yet his naive and childish motive for doing so seemed so pleasant and nice that it managed to seperate between the two, who then turned their back at one another. "We can all be best buddies together. How about it? Say something nice to one another." the Earth-born Saiyan talked, trying to settle their despute and become friends.
The two warriors turned their heads slightly and looked at the other. "Fuck off." they said simultaneously to one another before looking away, this time less malice was presented on their faces, but they still didn't like one another.
Goku's face lit up with a smile. "The best." he said before letting both go and getting serious once more as he looked at the white skinned alien, who still just stood there laughing, though now he laughed out loud from the situation.
Everyone looked at the alien as he laughed, entering a battle stance as they glared in anticipation in order to prepare themselves for his attack, yet he stood unmoving calmly to the point that it seemed unnatural, making a bead of sweat appear on their brow. "How cute, it seems you made some new friends Vegeta. I didn't know you were capable of such an imposible achievement." the lizard-looking overlord said with arrogance filling his british accent, making the words flow smoothly on his tounge.
Quietly growling in irritation, the prince tensed his body in his royal stance, left arm above the head. "Hate you," he said with destain before looking at the rest of the fighters next to him, fighting on the same side he is. "hate you all." he declared before returning his gaze to the tyrant.
A jokey smile rose to Raditz's face as his gaze went towards the prince of all Saiyans. "You know, some of us believe it's mutual." he said in a tone filled with snark before he returned his gaze to the foe the entire alliance was about to face, and the bulky son of Bardock didn't know if they stood a chance against him. The fact that the maned Saiyan retorted to the flame-haired prince made him growl with irritation.
Suddenly Freeza squinted his eyes, sending a wave of killing intent so malicious and scary, that everyone, aside from the sons of Bardock, took a step backwards, making their body less relaxed and more hardened, with sweatstarting to roll down their bodies and a chill that went down their spine.
The expression on the white skinned being suddenly got incredibly serious, which made him a thousand times scarier than his xenomorph form. "Now my apologies, but I have two children to kill, so forgive me if I don't waste my precious time on torturing you first." he said with fury starting to leak out of his mouth, despite the amount of civility and restraint shown just by the fact that he wasn't shouting at the top of his lungs something to do with monkeys. His eyes seemed completely cold yet the anger and hatered where open to view in them.
He then instantly disappeared, only to reappear in front of the son of Earth's greatest defender, extending his fingers togetherand forcing them to form a spear like shape, intending to impale the boy's throat with his hand. Seeing the hand getting closer to his son's neck frightened Goku like he never was before. The thought of letting this attack hitting and killing his beloved offspring scared the Earth-raised warrior more than anything else in his life, and it the the second most infuriating and inraging thing to ever come to his mind, second only to the recurring nightmares of seeing Krillin's dead body after what that monster Tamborine did many years.
Acting quickly as his train of thought was all about the moment while grinding his teeth, the Earth's prime defender swiped his arm outside and raising his elbow slightly, stopping the attack coming from the tyrant in such a fast pace that only Raditz and Freeza could keep up, but the white skinned alien was so shocked that an attack from his final form was stopped that his expression was changed instantly to one of shock and confusion as he moved his sight towards the orange clad fighter, only for the thin white skinned arm to be swiped aside as the hero of Earth rotated slightly to the right and hammered a snapping punch straight to chest of the shorter opponent, sending skidding backwards while spewing saliva and said opponent's eyes bulged out in pain.
As he retracted his left fist, Goku entered the horse stance as he put his left hand clenched as a fist to his waist while his right hand stayed close to his chest as a way to swipe incoming attacks. Growling, he ignited his white-blue aura at full strength, remembering to hold as much power inside as possible. A large crater formed around him, with the exception of the ground he was standing on, as wind blasted away from him, causing everyone to lose their balance, except Vegeta who jumped foward, charging a ball of energy in his palm.
"I won't let you harm my son! If you wanna fight someone, FIGHT ME!" the palm haired Saiyan roared at the galactic emperor as he prepared to charge, only for Vegeta to throw his attack into the distance, passing the low-class fighter in order to get his attention, which succedded as the Earth-raised fighter looked at the prince.
Gritting his teeth, Vegeta was the one to get the first shout on his current ally. "Kakarot, if you want to defend you son than sit there and defend him! Freeza's MINE to kill, and only mine!" the prince of all Saiyans shouted in fury as he landed in front of the group, facing the powerful tyrant who just finished recovering mentaly from what just occured, managing to regain his composure before looking at the royal elite.
Taking a deep breath, the Saiyan from Earth calmed himself, relaxing his body and soothing his mind as he closed his eyes. "Okay Vegeta, beat him up best buddy." the serious tone didn't disappear yet from his voice, but he seemed to lose the momentary animosity that he had before smiling at the blue-spandex wearing royal.
As the white alien regained his composure, he looked at the prince and smiled, putting his arms behind his back. "Still think you can win me Vegeta?" he asked in a mocking and condescending tone, standing still as his smirk stayed firm. "Do still believe you're that "Super Saiyan" of yours?" he kept asking the royal elite, who just smirked back at the tyrant.
Arrogance started to drip in unbelieveable levels, to the point that everyone around had the feeling that the Prince of all Saiyans was going to say or do something incredibly idiotic that will arise from his ego. The flame-haired armored fighter entered his battle stance as his smirk grew wider and more confident.
"Yes Freeza, seemed you finally understand what I truely am," the prince said with pure unadulterated confidence, causing the short-spiky haired Saiyan to snort in annoyance before picking up a large rock and starting to smash it repeatedly against his skull.
The stance and body language of the proud elite grew more and more confident and prideful with each word uttered by the flame-haired royal. "For you see, coming back from death at this moment I have finally tapped into the well of power that is mine from birthright," Vegeta kept on talking, his chest swelling with pride to the point that tears almost came out of his eyes, as he truely believe he had become a Super Saiyan.
With the rest of the group, Bryco kept smashing the rock into his head, shattering it completely without a drop of blod coming from his forehead, so he took a boulder with both his hands, strating to smash the larger body of rock into his skull harder and faster than before. "Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?!" he shouted repeatedly in frustration, while Bardock's eldest turned to his younger brother, who now seemed to go back to his regular self.
"That was comepletely of of character for you, little brother. I never knew you could react like that to seeing your son threatend. Not many saiyans do." he said to the palm-haired warrior with concern and pride combining in his tone, and a proud smile rose to his face.
The younger son of Bardock smiled at his brother with the same kind of smile. "I dunno, feeling the deadly aura that was coming from that Fryza and seeing close to Gohan made me remember Krillin's death all those years ago, and I didn't want to see it happen again." he said, unknowingly mispronouncing the tyrant's name as he explained his motives to his aggressive outburst.
The Saiyan prince started to take a step further causiosly as he continued to talk himself while the low-class fighter was talking. "Now the time to avenge my race has come and to claim our rightful place in the universal pecking order. You guessed it Freeza, I Vegeta, Prince of all Saiyans have finally achieved the power of the legendary and unmatched power of the Super Saiyan!" the flame-haired warrior roared at the top of his lungs as he ignited his aura, which burst to life in blazing white-blue energy around him as he tightened his body in his battle stance.
Shaking with anger and frustration at the last member of his race's line of royalty, the short-spiky haired Saiyan grinded his teeth as a small red dot was visible on his forehead and small rocks around him. "WOULD YOU SHUT HIM UP ALREADY?!" he shouted at the top of his lungs with anger, clearly asking of the white skin alien to beat the crap of the Saiyan's former comrade, much to the dismay of the short Saiyan elite, who turned his head towards Bryco and hissed at him before glaring back at the galactic overlord.
Jumping foward with his fist at his waist, Vegeta charged at his foe, appearing right in front of the white skinned alien, sending a straight punch from the waist, arm rising to chest height, and the punch flying foward toward's the lizard-looking emperor's chest. However Freeza sidestepped the jab, moving his entire body to the right as it rotated.
The tyrant used his right foot to step on the left foot of his royal opponent to stop his movement, Freeza moved his arm forward and slightly spinned his forearm, making his right fist slam against the face of the flame-haired warrior's cheeck, causing a sonic boom and sending the human-looking fighter flying backwards.
The prince's momentum was stopped as he crashed into the side of a mountain, shattering its entire upper half, causing an earth-shaking avalanche. As the dust cleared, only a large pile of rock covered the area Vegeta hit against. A few moments later the flame-haired Saiyan blew out of the weight above him, flying into the sky with his aura ignited.
Rubbing his cheeck with his hand, pain throbbed across the entire skull of the royal fighter, as a swollen bruise covered the right cheeck and blood dripped from the right edge of his lower lip. clenching his hand into a fist, the elite warrior growled in anger.
The white skinned being on the other hand stood firm, his body relaxed and arms crossed against his chest, smirking at the sight of his opponent. "Oops, I'm so sorry Vegeta, I just moved instinctively. Should I allow you to hit me this time?" the tyrant mocked his proud opponent with still a civilized tone in his speech, making the blue-spandex wearing Saiyan to growl.
Vegeta charged in, quickly reaching up to his target and unleashed an incredibly fast flurry of jabs at the chest stomach and head of his foe, sometimes sending several swings towards the neck of the lizard-looking alien, in a ratio of one swing after a dozen jabs. However none of the strikes was even close to landing, as Freeza moved his upper body according to the direction the prince's strikes were coming, eclipsing the Flame-haired elite's speed with such ease while he twisted his body foward, backwards and to the sides with such elegance that no one whould imagine that his skills were rusty.
Seeing that using fists wasn't doing anything, the prince jumped backwards and charged a blue sphere of energy in his hands, sending it towards his foe. The tailed being snorted with amusement before slapping the attack away, with the prince using the opprotunity to get close to his foe. The elite fighter send a roundhouse kick to the side of the galactic overlord, who managed to raise a basic boxing guard to block the roundhouse kick.
As the leg crashed against the forearm, it created a sonic boom with a shockwave crossing the plains as a loud "BOOOM!" echoed in the green sky of planet Namek. The prince then tried another roundhouse kick to the face of the tyrant, whom switched to a Sit Down boxing guard to blocl the second kick, with another sonic boom created by the impact of leg and forearm.
Retracting his left leg, the prince sent a front kick with his right leg, encasing and cloacking his right foot in a violent veil of ki. Freeza quickly put both hands in a "X" shaped guard, blocking the kick which managed to make him skid backwards slightly, but the alien emperor still had an arrogant smirk all over his face, irking the armored Saiyan more and more.
The prince launched himself fowardwhile raising his left leg, sending a spinning back kick towards the chest of his opponent, who blocked the kick using the same "X" shaped guard as before, only to open it to push the leg backwards. The leg didn't go back to the ground as the Frost Demon expected the Saiyan elite to do, rather the flame-haired fighter folded the leg back and then sprang back into a side kick intended to slam itself into the front of Freeza's face.
The white skinned being bent backwards so the attack his royal foe sent wouldn't hit his face, using his right leg to do an inside crescent kick to kick away Vegeta's left leg before jumping backwards, leaving the Saiyan elite out of balance.
Entering a battle stance, the smirk on his face grew wider. "I must say your skills are pretty good Vegeta," he started to compliment his Saiyan advirsary whom started running towards the white skinned alien before performing a jumping spinning axe kick, which was blocked as the tyrant raised his forearm upwards to block the falling leg of the black haired fighter. "But not good enough I'm afraid." the emperor finished his sentence only to use a bit of force to push his foe backwards.
As he went back into the air, Vegeta span himself backwards, doing a dozen arial somersaults before landing on the ground perfectly. As he entered his stance once more, he smirked at the white tyrant with smugness and arrogance as he raised his left arm and started to fire beams of energy at the lizard-looking being. "Stop deluding yourself Freeza, we both know this is your end." he said as a barrage of energy blasts started to fly.
A bored sigh left the tyrant's lips as he started to fly away from the blasts, which exploded against the ground, shaking the planet. Continuing his volley of ki blasts, the prince rose to the skies as his white skinned opponent elegantly dodged every explosion that came to his way, moving like a reptilian but his movements were so refined that it was hard not to be amazed from them.
Rising to the green sky as well the lizard-looking alien spinned and rotated and twisted his body , allowing blasts to pass him and explode in the distance, a wide smirk of joy on his face while his eyes were closed, showing nothing but a calm and confident demeanor. Several moments later he opened his eyes with glee and blitzed the incoming barrage of blue orbs of energy, appearing right in front of the Saiyan prince in an instant, much to the warrior's shock.
Crossing his arms while a smirk on his face, the white space lizard showed a calm and confident demeanor, proving to himself his superiority over his foe. "So Vegeta, are we done playing games, or do I have to tickle you?" he asked his opponent playfully and mockingly, as he raised his tail in front of the nose of the armored prince, wigging the white limb from side to side slowly.
Angered, the royal fighter roared at the top of his lungs as his auraq flared and blazed to life in a white-blue light. He flew upwards, higher into the green landless plains of the sky of planet Namek, before rotating slightly to the right, putting his left hand next to his head, only to then put his right hand on top of his left, releasing ki into his aura in preperations to use his Galick Gun attack.
Growling and snarling, the energy he emitted slowly started to change the color of his aura into a deep purple shade. "THAT DOES IT! I'M GOING TO AVENGE ME RACE RIGHT NOW! YOU'RE DEEEEEEAAAAAAD!" the prince roared and claimed loudly, as much as his Saiyan lungs could muster, as more energy was poured into his attack.
The aura got thicker and thicker by the purple energy released by the prince, to the point that the only thing seen of the royal Saiyan inside it was were lines to indicate his stilhouette, similar to his newly invented "Galick Bomb". The top of mountains and hills beneath started to crumble and rise to the air, as the wind itself started to spin around Vegeta with furious and vengeful cried.
With an uspeakable roar, the Prince of all Saiyan released his attack, driving it foward like a rocket towards his white foe with the force to easily destroy the planet. The front of the beam was huge, meeting and matching a size ten times greater than its royal user, with the beam only slightly smaller, yet still furocious and hungry.
The beam raced with deadly force at the white skinned tyrant, who kept his confident smirk as he was covered by the blinding purple light of the incoming attack, making sure his arms stayed crossed against his chest.
When the giant beam reached the evil overlord, he sent a powerful kick with unbelieveable force, which crashed against the powerful attack sent by his elite foe, only to easily send it flying away towards the atmosphere of the planet, passing the Saiyan prince on its way to the new destination. After reaching and passing all the three layers of the planet, the beam detonated in space, shaking planet Namek to the core.
Shaking with terror and shock, the prince floated aghast at the sight of the terrifying thing that just occured. He couldn't believe that the strongest version he ever made to his strongest technique was reflected by his opponent, who showed no sign of injury of as if he put any effort into sending his Galick Gun away.
Tears of fear, desperation and frustration started to fall from his eyes as he sniffed with anger and disappointment at himself, making Freeza's smirk to grow larger. "So Vegeta, seems like this little "I'm the Legendary Super Saiyan because I have a title" theory of yours didn't pan out after all." the white skinned being mocked his crying opponent with a smug and arrogant tone, taking a ton of satisfaction from every tear falling from the prince's eyes.
Angered once more, the prince charged in a desperate attempt, with tears still running down from his eyes and snot running from his nose. He sent a thunderous punch at his foe from the center of his body, but the powerful alien moved his head to the right, allowing the punch to pass by him, getting the body of the elite warrior closer. Using his left white skinned arm, Freeza hammered a bone crushing elbow strike to the flame-haired warrior's stomach, stopping the Saiyan's body in its tracks, forcing Vegeta to puke a large amount of blood.
The tyrant then wrapped his white tail around the neck of his foe, leaving enough room for the armored warrior to breath but not to get free. Turning his back to the Saiyan elite, Freeza crossed his arms once more and started flying towards a nearby mountain.
Stopping right in front of the rocky body, he slammed his black-haired foe into the side of the mountain, before flying parallel to it, while dragging the body of his opponent along, digging him into the rock and using the body to carve into the side of the mountain.
Swinging his tail, the white skinned lizard pulled the human-looking Saiyan out of the side of the mountain after using his foe to write "I Rule". As the frame of the warrior prince came to sight, his white armor was dirty and battered, his face and every other exposed flesh were bleeding from cuts and bruises, and the leggings of his blue spandex were shredded.
Smiling, the lizard-looking alien swung his tail with elegance to bring the prince's body under his white frame. An instant later he crashed both feet into the back of his royal foe, breaking it with a "CRACK!" sound as both were plummeting down towards the ground. They crashed with a loud "CRASSSSSSHHH!" sound as winds gathered dust on them and spread it around the area and above the water.
As the dust cleared a large visible crater, which was 40 meters wide and 30 inches deep, the galactic monster was standing on top of the broken and bleeding body of his adversary, who was stil contious, much to the shock of the Human-Saiyan Alliance.
Rising from the crater, the emperor flew foward, digging the body of his flame-haired opponent slightly into the ground, moving quickly to the point that Vegeta's body was creating a trench of dirt in the plains. The tyrant moved back and forth in that fashion on different lines on the ground, seemingly plowing through a field, using the royal Saiyan's body as his tool to do his job.
As the white skinned lizard kept on moving back and forth, the trenches in the ground became deeper and deeper, as well as having more blood in them with as the prince lost more and more blood. Not before long the monstrous emperor grew bored of the activity, so he swung his tail foward, letting go of his opponent, allowing Vegeta's body to flail in the wind like a ragdoll before he crashed into a hill.
Several seconds later as the body of the prince started to fall after denting the hill, Freeza flew fowards in top speed, crashing his right foot into the stomach of his foe, making him spew blood as he was kicked into the hill, making it crumble in an avalanche that made an earthquake.
Before the crumbling hill fell on him, the frame of the blue-spandex wearing prince exited the other side of the hill, with him panting heavily as he tried to breath a little bit as he shook and cried from the pain of his broken back.
Suddenly the white skinned tyrant appeared behind the elite warrior, wrapping his white meaty yet still skinny tail around the prince's neck once more. This time Vegeta felt that he couldnot breath, making him thrash in effort to get free of the grip, making his vicious foe smile.
Freeza started to pummel jabs into the chest and stomach of the Saiyan, sometimes swinging powerful punches to the head of the prince. With each punch the Saiyan felt his bones starting to break and his face becoming more bruised and filled with blood. He couldn't get over the pain, so he cried and shouted loudly as he was hit, causing his lizard-looking foe to laugh with malicious and evil joy in his laugh.
After a long and painful torture session by the evil white skinned alien, blackness covered the eyes of the Saiyan prince, as he finally lost contiousness. This however was not to the liking of the galactic emperor, so he threw the uncontious body to the groung, making it crash with a loud "BOOM!" sound as more dust flew into the air.
When the dust dispresed the body lied down in a crater and blood was coming out of all the cuts that the prince gain all over his body, and his armor was now broken completely, creating more cuts on the chest of its owner. Freeza flew down as quick as possible, landing on the left arm of the prince with a force of a wrecking ball, breaking his foe's hand.
The painful effect of the bone in his arm breaking snapped Vegeta back into contiousness as pain stabbed his nerve system, making him cry out in pain, much to the joy of the sadistic lizard. The humanoid lizard put his leg on the bleeding and exposed chest of the Saiyan, crossing his arms and giggling to himself. "I'm so glad you came back Vegeta, now I can torture you more." he said before kicking the flame-haired warrior's side, sending him flying, as well as use his speed to appear above the flailing Saiyan, sending him into the sea with a double-axe hammer.
Floating just above the water, the tyrant focused his mind, aloowing himself to calmly use his psychic abilities. He slowly moved his arms to both his sides, right arm to the right, left arm to the left, as the water themselves started to moved in the direction of the arms, a pure raw force of telekinesis.
As the water were slowly moved away from the white skinned alien, the body of the prince was revealed as the movement of the water carried him, before he felt his body rise from the current before the water fell back to its place. Vegeta was held in the air with salt water in his lungs, his face and chest facing the sky. Flipping his palm downwards, the psychic tyrant spinned the body of the Saiyan elite so that his front will face the sea, allowing his crushed foe to puke out the water and take several deep breaths.
After at least three minutes Vegeta started breathing in a much better fasion than before, and he started groaning and whining from the pain that throbbed and metaphorically stabbed his body, making the smirk of smug arrogance on Freeza's face to grow wider. Then the tailed being started to lower the prince down until the entire frame of the royal fighter had disappeared in the water, as the emperor started to drown his foe.
The flame-haired royal Saiyan tried to lift his head or fight in any way go get some air again, but the force of Freeza's telekinesis held him firm in the water. He closed his mouth as bubbles of air slowly got out of his nostrils. He fought to hold as much air as possible, allowing him to survive a while under water while the pained made him want to open his mouth and make a sound, but he couldn't.
After more or less 5 minutes passed, the evil emperor raised his arm, pulling the Prince of all Saiyans out of the water, allowing him to puke some water and breath once more. After several minutes of rest the white skinned alien lowered the warrior prince into the sea, allowing him to drown once more.
The torture process of drowning the Saiyan prince lasted for a while, with the constant repeating process of drowning the elite fighter before taking him out of the water, allowing him to breath for 3-5 minutes before doing the same process.
At a point Freeza got bored, so he floated closer t the prince, wrapping his tail around his opponent's neck once more, not too tight to allow his victim to breath, and started hammering punches to the back of the prince, making him spew blood and saliva with every hit landing, with a pained crycoming out of the Saiyan's lungs.
This also continued for several minutes as pain throbbed across all of Vegeta's body. Tears ran on his cheecks and blood ran from his mouth and the wounds that were reopening, he knew he was finished. After several minutes of being pummeled like meat, his body was tossed into a hill, denting it beforefalling on his broken back.
Tears ran from his eyes as snot ran from the nose. He whined and groaned in pain as he turned his head to the right, to see his opponent landing on the ground. "Why?! I should be the Legendary Super Saiyan! I'm the prince of all of the Saiyans! I should avenge my race! Why did I lose?!" he cried with a waterfall of tears running from his eyes as he ranted in pain as his spirit and pride were broken into pieces.
The tyrant frowned slightly, but now with anger, as he walked towards his first victim, only stopping a bit out of the reach of his royl adversary. "You know Vegeta, I always liked you the most." the emperor said with a sympathetic tone to his voice, showing a side to him that didn't drip with smug arrogance and cruelty. "We're the same, you and I. We are both royal heirs to something bigger than ourselves with a lot on our shoulders." he continued to talk as the prince tried on last time to attack, raising his arm that was not broken and charged a ball of energy in it.
Not taking any chances, the tyrant shot the prince in the arm, making it useless as well. "However, the difference between us is that I was truely born special, with an amount of power you cannot fathom." he said as the prince continued to cry in defeat as he growled, snarled and whined all the same time. "You, on the other hand, are nothing more than a thug." the white skinned alien said rubbing salt on the wounds of defeat, keeping his tone completely serious as he kept talking. "In terms of power, you were nothing until you had a tiny bit of luck in your miserable life." he said with a cold tone filled with contained anger as he put his right leg on the stomach of the prince, making the royal Saiyan spew some blood as he cried to the skies in pain.
"Vegeta no!" the voice of the low-class warrior from afar, making the flame-haired warrior curse himself. "You were a thug who decided to do whatever you want simply because you're called "prince". Let me tell you something Vegeta," the tailed being said as he raised his left arm and a small ball of energy appeared t the tip of his index finger. "You are the prince of no one. Goodbye." he said as he shot a concetrated beam through the heart of the Saiyan prince, killing him instantly.
A moment after the beam it the now dead elite warrior, a dark-blue boot crashed against the face of the evil lizard-looking emperor, sending him flying backwards. As the tyrant gained back his balance, he saw the palm-haired fighter that hit him before standing bending over the dead body of Vegeta, moving the corpse slightly in order to attempt to wake the blue-spandex wearing fighter to wake up, which the orange donning Saiyan failed to do.
Goku brought his head closer to the body of his former foe. "I'll get him for you Vegeta." he whispered as he got up and faced the evil tailed being, who was now standing in front of him. The wind passed through both of them, making the hair on Son Goku's head to flow in the wind's touch. His glare turned serious as he looked at his opponent, the one King Kai claimed to be one of the strongest beings in the universe, staring right back at the defender of Earth.
A smile rose on the face of the white skinned alien. "So now I have another monkey to kill." he said with arrogance filling his voice as the youngest son of Bardock entered a battle stance. "Just so you know, against Vegeta I used only 5% of my full power." the tyrant said with confidence, making the Earth-raised fighter to look at him with shock, before his expression turned into that of anger and excitement.
"Then that means this battle will be one hell of a ride. And when I win, I'll be much more satisfied." he said as he both tensed and relaxed his body somewhat, preparing to start fighting against his foe, who claimed to be mighty powerful, making Goku feel like the excitement his burning him from the inside.
[To Be Continued]
Cue #2: Ending- Roundabout
With Vegeta now dead Goku enters the fight to take on the power of Freeza, who claims to use just 5% of his power against the now dead Saiyan prince. Is that kind of claim even possible? Can Goku really defeat a foe with a power of that magnitude? Find out on the next chapter of "Changed Path"...
Wow I really wrote this chapter pretty fast, mostly because I wrote it in only three or four days. Now that is impressive. Now next chapter I will start with the Z-Fighters' point of view from the ending of the Vegeta massacre, so please don't get angry for not including it in this chapter. Also I tried my best to write the names of the kicks used in this chapter so you could look them up and see how they are performed, so it will be easier to imagine the fight.
Now the lookout scene was partialy for laughs, and if you wan't some backstory to this scene, please let me know. I intended to show the lookout training while the Namek events occured, but I knew I wouldn't be able to do that well so I just skipped to this scene.
Now it's time for power levels:
Power Levels:
Vegeta (Post Zenkai): 2.4 million
Freeza (Final Form 5%): 6 million
Goku (Post Guru's enhancement- Full Power without Kaioken): 6 million
Now I made Goku stronger than cannon because I wanted to. I know power levels are messed up and fucked beyond repair in cannon Frieza Saga, but I feel like 3 million never amounted to something unil Super Saiyan, so I made Goku stronger.
R&A:
R: Good, I really enjoyed this one.
Frieza is still Frieza so there is no need to address how he acted this chapter. It was refreshing though to see Gohan try to overcome the tyrant himself, which like in Z failed. Can't wait to see what comes from the next matches with Frieza.
Piccolo and Nail's fusion was a unique mix of awesome and humorous. You added some TFS stuff in which could be why I found humor in it. But the whole bit about stepping up for the Namekian race and standing beside the others to face Frieza.
Things are getting intense. Can't wait to see where this goes.
A: Well, Gohan's attempt here was fucking pathetic, as he ended up getting the Super Treatment (aka the only fucking scene that was good in that abomination shitty arc known as Resurection F Arc).
I made the incomplete Namekian fusion like TFS's Namekian fusion, because Nail and later Kami inside of Piccolo's head is fucking hilarious.
Also Freeza is still Freeza in chapter 26, not Fryza. (Then why is there an "i" in it. There isn't). Hoped you loved this episode, as Freeza is very creative in his final form in terms of fighting, despite being rusty.
R: Nice chapter
But one thing, anger or no anger, way too soon for Gohan to be even thinking of transforming.
A: And right you are. Gohan was never supposed to transform or even close. I clearly don't know why I did this mistake if only to find a way to get Freeza to attempt an attack. I always planned for Goku to arrive and use an invisible kia wave to push Freeza back and make him transform into his final form, but I only have ideas in my mind for certain moment, so I try to build the chapter to get to the moments in the chapter I do have in my head.
Let's just say in short that I can't write very well.
R: I really like your story. I hope you make it so your power levels make sense I never understood why people make cell and the androids so weak it doesn't make sense for goku's power to jump from 9,000 to 3 million in just over a month then hardly increase after. Bare minimum full power perfected super saiyan 1 goku's should be over 120 billion units since if you use scaling he should be more powerful than shin. Some people try to say that shin doesn't know frieza can transform but I say that's bs if the lazy sob beerus knows about it even tho he sleeps all the time I am pretty sure the supreme kai knows about it as well meaning that he is a thousand times more powerful than friezas final form not his suppressed form
A: Thanks for liking my humble story, even if it's okay at best. I agree with you on power levels, and that is why I planned to get rid of them after the first SSJ transformation. I think Shin should be stronger than Perfect Cell but weaker than Super Perfect Cell, who in my opinion should be slightly weaker than SSJ2 Gohan. If I use the "Bringer of Death" system, which fucking rocks to the point that I prefer it to the fucking multiplier shit, Shin would be 1.6 billion, with Perfect Cell being 1.54 billion.
R: This is one hell of a chapter alright! Frieza is livid and ready to dine on monkey soup in his final form. And unfortunately for the kids, they're likely to be his first priority. How will Raditz, Goku and their allies fare against the cold emperor of the universe? Will Vegeta and Bryco wake up before Frieza kill them in their sleep? Will Dende be the first of the group to die as he did in canon as Frieza is willing to f**k with the white mage? Will we ever know how Krillin feels about losing his virginity? Find out on Changed Paths!
Humor asides, it was amazing how everyone fare against Frieza's onslaught and the gains the Saiyans get from getting asses handed to them by the tyrant. If Vegeta and Bryco wake up they might have a little chance of winning. Oh who am I kidding, they are all going to die unless a Super Saiyan is born and Gohan was close. My boy was about to go super on that lizard's ass if it wasn't for Raditz calming him down. It sucks that Frieza saw his eyes and came to the conclusion that Super Saiyan is indeed real and is planning to kill everyone in his final/true form. The question is if he is going to initially hold back as he did in canon or become more serious due to his fears slowly coming true. Also, it is a good thing that this fic was rated M or it would have a certain annoying reviewer who keeps talking one of the most annoying topics in life instead of a proper review. Someone need to ban that person because he or she is one of those doomsayers that keeps spreading shit about the book of revelations and is potential discouraging or scaring readers and writers with lies that came from a popular misconception that was made in the 1920's by a horrible translator.
A: Yes, everyone is fucked. Even though Freeza intended to kill Gohan first and instantly, Goku stopped him and Vegeta challanged him. Freeza is still sure that he is safe in his final form and that he doesn't need to worry, but that will slightly affect his battle with Goku in the next chapter.
Now I rated my story to be mature so that I could write as many curse words as I want in order to make it easier for me to write dialog, since I swear a lot, but also the "beach scene" from chapter 19 if you remember that. Now what reviewer and what topic are you talking about? I just want to know.
Well guys, this is all for now. I hope you enjoyed this chaper and as always, have a nice day and week everybody.
