The wasteland was quiet, settled in it's silence as the first to arrive was Yamcha. The young man surprised he was the first to be ready to take on the coming threat. "I hope I am not the only one stupid enough to come. I may have been better off staying away and training some more." He said quietly before sighing.
"Don't be silly, Yamcha. You will be a tremendous help in the coming fight." Goku suddenly said, startling Yamcha as he spun around. He saw Gohan and Goku both standing there as if they were there the whole time, the two smiled as they wore their battle armor.
"How did you have time to change to your armor and get here so quickly." Yamcha said with his hand to his chest, attempting to calm his rapidly beating heart.
"Umm Yamcha, the Instant Transmission. Dad showed it to you when he first appeared to show he returned." Gohan said laughing at the startled man, and with a large grin. "And he figured someone would show up soon. So, dad and I got ready and waited for someone to get close to where it felt like the power was landing. Are you as ready as I am? I am sure we can handle, Freeza this time. Even if he has back up." Gohan took a confident stance as the power he attain emanated from the child.
"Manage you spawn, Kakarot." Vegeta's voice called down suddenly, the saiyan prince landed down alone and kept his power as low as he possibly could. His face stern and with visible annoyance.
"No Nappa?" Goku asked as he looked around and then felt for the fellow saiyan.
"He is staying back with the woman. She was insisting she could come and fight. I told her to stay, and she got even more annoying. So, I told Nappa to keep her there, I suspect that she is trying to escape and follow." Vegeta turned his head away from the group, Goku chuckling to the prince's annoyance. "I am hoping to get this over with so she doesn't interrupt my fight with Freeza, and none of you should dare doing so either." His glare turned to Goku specifically, who just raised his hands and pretended to be innocent.
A few moments of quiet before Tien, Chiaotzu, and Krillin showed as well. "I didn't expect to arrive before Tarble. He must be thinking of some sort of plan before showing." Tien remarked, as he looked over the others. "That or maybe he will let you guys have your fun and show up last moment." Tien smirked as he teased the fact the Saiyan blooded fighters all seemed ready to fight.
"It is a poor plan if that is the case." Raditz landed soon after. "Even I can tell, the group of us cannot handle Freeza's power. We needed more time, and now we pay for it. Especially if Tarble is not here soon." The saiyan said, his hand placed over his missing arm's wound. Remembering the cowardice he once had and reaffirming his own plan. "We should attack his ship, force him to only have him and whatever buddy he has."
"Sounds to me like you are worried about small fries." Vegeta said mocked.
"I am trying to think smart, no point in letting one get a lucky hit in and allowing Freeza you kill you easily. Unless you want to be beaten by a cheap shot." Raditz fired back.
"Only a fool would get tripped up by a weakling's involvement." Vegeta growled as the two steadily raised their Ki.
"Vegeta, you just told Gohan to manage his Ki." Goku said with his hands to his hips and shaking his head. "I don't think we need to destroy the ship. We just need to push Freeza and his friend tell they decide it is pointless to keep fighting. We can manage that."
"Could you all be quiet, they ship is landing soon." Piccolo shouted from a little way away, motioning toward the ship slowly descending down. The group nodded to each other, knowing they could not wait much longer. To try and gain some advantage though, they attempted to walk and use no Ki to keep the scouters from being used.
Each step was a grew each warrior's anxiousness, a mix of fear and excitement for each of them. The warriors all had trained hard even during this age of peace, but even the greatest felt small to the two awaiting in their approach. The cluster of smaller fighters exited the ship with Freeza and they could feel the massive amount of power of the Freeza force. The Ginyu Force reclaimed members to match once more, King Cold's special forces brought. But the shift of tension as a new person stood before Freeza and his men.
A young woman, a portion of her short raven black hair pulled back in a ponytail that spiked upward. Long bangs hang before her face and slightly framed her face to be a bit narrow. She wore a dark blue sleeveless tank top, exposing her mid-drift. Paired with dark skirt that overed just over her knees. And more surprising she held a sheathed katana in her right hand, chewing lightly and blowing a bubble with gum. A small smirk came to her mouth as the bubble popped as she looked at the forces before her.
"Looks like a local has come to visit… What is it you want?" Freeza said grinning as she stood before him.
"I have come to kill you." She said with her smile still held. King cold and Freeza laughed, followed by the forces as they showed her power far less than them.
"Don't worry, Lord Freeza. I will take care of this one. Then we-" The alien was interrupted by the sound of a chip, a snap, and a zip. A moment passed as the body of the alien fell and its head rolled from the body.
The woman stood where she was, but her smile was gone as she stared down the Emperor. "Looks like I lost the taste. Gum is no good once the flavors gone." She said, as if explaining something to Freeza. She then spit the gum out, the wad smacking into the Emperor's forehead.
Freeza's eyes wide, his fingers took the wad of gum off his forehead. Sticky and slimy with spit from the girl. His face returned to its furious look to it. "Kill her… kill her kill her kill her!" He screamed out as his men rushed toward the girl.
Chirp, snap-snap-snap-snap-snap, zip. Freeza's men soon fell to pieces to the ground, none within five feet of the girl standing before them. "I did say I was coming to kill you… your men would have been spared if you just gave your head." She said with bored eyes staring at the galactic emperor.
"You… foolish girl. I will kill you!" He roared before his eyes widened. He was not prepared to see what stood behind her. Tarble had appeared suddenly, a small burnt circle around where he stood. "B-But… you can't be alive." Cold saw his son's reaction, his gaze turned to the newcomer.
"I thought I felt someone new." Tarble said as he looked over the girl. "You mind if I take over, you seem to have an issue with Freeza… but he is much stronger then you think."
"Oh no, I know exactly how strong he is. So, you sit back and watch. I have revenge to have." She said as her focus did not leave Freeza. She did not hold back anymore, play time was over. Her raven black hair suddenly turned golden and began to stand on its own. The hairband snapped and made the contained hair unfurled into a short spikes on her head. Tarble almost as equally surprised as Freeza. Chirp, Snaps, and zip. Freeza did not get a chance to react as his body began to fall apart. Chunks dropped and slide off his body, his eyes stuck wide as he felt his body fall to the ground. The golden haired girl stood over his body in a pile, her palm lifted and ball of energy formed. "No last words… no time to realize your mistake." She spoke softly before she incinerated the pile as Cold watched her in horror.
"H-how… how did you?" Cold said as he stepped back with growing fear. He expected no one to have this kind of power. His son killed without a chance. His only hope was Ginyu to do as he was told, and try to steal anyone's body that seemed powerful. He was wondering where he was, his eyes turned as Ginyu's body fell out of the ship.
"I left him for you, like our deal. Keep your side of the bargain. You don't have a chance if you try to fight us." The girl said as a shadowy figure stepped forward.
A deep purple leg first appeared, three toes and calmly stepping as more and more became seen. A figure that looked much like Freeza but a darker purple skin tone. A stern face as three men worked to slay the remaining Ginyu Force, making simple work of them and followed their master. Cold's eyes widened, his face turned to anger. "COOLER! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!?" He yelled as he reclaimed his bravery.
"I am reclaiming the family honor, father. You kept spoiling Freeza, and he proved to not see the benefit of leaving the Saiyans alone. He led to his death, and was killed by one of them." Cooler said coldly. "And you fed him this idea that because he was a prodigy he could do as he pleased." He continued before he stood before his father. "All the while I had to work under the spoiled child that you worshipped."
"You traitorous little." Cold growled as his fist shook.
"I tried to usurp you before… what made you think I would not again? Family bonds? I have no responsibility to you and for revenge for you. Not when you willingly get yourselves killed in an unprepared attack." Cooler said, Cold finally reacting as he struck at Cooler. The son grabbed his fist, a smile on Cooler's face. Slowly the alien grew larger, muscles growing as his Ki increased. A face mask closed as he entered his final form. "As I said… killed in an unprepared attack." Cooler spoke as his other hand grabbed Cold's head between his horns, and brought it down on his knee.
Cold reeled back from the sudden pain, Cooler did not relent though. His fist implanted into his father's stomach. Cooler then grabbed his father's horns, and began to mercilessly kneeing him in the face. Crunches and cracking, Cold's horns snapped suddenly and the beaten face exposed finally. With both horns in his hands, Cooler then stabs them into his father's neck. Gasping in pain as blood openly flowed from his face and now wounds form the horns.
"Who is the disappointment now father?" Cooler said, simply pointing his finger at Cold's head. "I will even kill you with one of Freeza's moves." He finished and fired a single beam through his father's forehead. A hole through his head and Cold simply fell to the ground. "Armorer Squadron, destroy anything of Freeza's. Then report back to the ship."
The girl then coughed and grabbed Cooler's attention. The larger Alien with great Ki stood before her, his eyes then lifted to Tarble. "While I would love to see just how a Super Saiyan would do against me. As part of our deal, you took care of freeza… and allow me to leave. This planet of yours has asylum from my forces. So long as the saiyans do not attempt to conquer." Cooler said to Tarble, a small stare down before he lifted to the air.
Tarble did not follow, instead just watched as the others arrived. Vegeta upset at seeing another Super Saiyan, was first to arrive in full power. "Who is this, and what was that power?" He roared, in disbelief another saiyan could exist without their knowledge.
The girl turned toward Vegeta as the hand that held her sheathed sword twisted to point to him. "Shut up, it isn't important right now." She said, Vegeta instead knocked the sheath away and stepped closer.
"Don't think I am playing games with you girl." He growled.
"Oh, you want to fight… I don't really have the time. I instead expect a thank you, if I didn't show up then you and two others would have died." The girl said, Vegeta forced into confusion. "Now that I have your attention. I am from the future, no I won't tell you who I am." She continued as she pulled a small pack from her hip and tossed a bottle to Tarble. "Androids attack on may 12th at 10 AM 9 kilometers southwest from south city in three years. Goku gets sick first and kicks the bucket, he acts as patient zero for a heart virus. Cure is made because he infects others on his death, that bottle has the cure." She pulled out a pack of gum as well, placing a strip against her tongue before pulling it in. "Most of you die in first attempt to fight the androids, second attempt leaves just Gohan from your little group. He attempts to train three students, he dies and leaves the three students. We aren't strong enough, so we came up with a plan with Bulma to go back in time and change things. There, provided message." The girl began to take off, Vegeta grabbed her wrist before she left.
"Wait a moment, you don't get to lay that information down and not explain a few things. How can we trust what you say?" Vegeta said as he did not like how everything was going.
"I don't know, she doesn't seem to be telling a lie." Goku said landed with the others.
"I hate to agree with Vegeta, but we have no reason to trust her." Raditz sighed out as he knew if he was not careful, Vegeta would use it against him.
"I don't care if you trust me. I didn't even think you would be any help. I was just asked because I fit the best in the machine. Now let go, or I break a rib." The girl's dark eyes looked down to Vegeta.
"I am not so easy to threaten." Vegeta said.
The girl chuckled as she nodded before she lifted her wrist up suddenly. Vegeta's arm lifted as she swiftly kicked him in the ribs, a snap heard as he cried out. "I warned you… not my fault you took it as a threat. Hope you get strong enough in three years. Also, you might want a new patient zero, so if you can get some else sick… that makes sure cure is made. Kinda closes this loop." She said snapping her wrist away from Vegeta, before she takes off into no where.
Vegeta growled as he almost took off after her, Tarble placed his hand to his shoulder. "Hold on, going after her does nothing." He said as an explosion happened behind him. Freeza's ship having fire erupted from it.
"Okay everyone, we talk about this once we are away from the ship." Goku said and took off to the sky. The others following, though Vegeta still had half a mind to follow after the girl. The last sight they have is her in some machine that vanishes from sight slowly, helping prove at least something strange was happening with her.
Freeza is dealt with an unknown warrior, who seems only there for her own wishes and reluctant to provide her message. How will the others take this information, how will the other take to finding out there is another super saiyan? Is it enough for Vegeta to seek the transformation, will Goku be able to obtain it or is his life to much of a joy filled that he cannot break the super saiyan barrier? What will change with Cooler in the story? Will he truly keep his side of the deal? Let us find out next chapter!
