Chapter 44 Arrive at planet Namek:
Once the saiyans had recovered and accepted Vegetas decision to accept Kumiko as a member of their team, they had taken all that they need from Kumikos destroyed ship. Including a few new space pods. Of course these were for escapes form the large ship that Vegeta had busted up, but they did the job. Kumiko had been told about their plan to take over Namek and recover the dragon balls to grant their wish. She had quickly agreed liking the idea of immortality, although she was not too happy about the possibility of Frieza finding them and trying to kill each and every one of them. But she soon got over it, she had been trying to raise an army of her own to rise up against the tyrant before her new comrades had killed them.
They had now abandoned the dying planet and left it to rot under the tree of might. Taking the space pods they made their way towards the Planet Namek. Along their journey through the vast ocean of stars they passed a small asteroid. However this was not just any small asteroid. This happened to be one of the Planet trade scanners. They had them placed all over the universe.( more in some sectors than others) As they passed the scanner, it scanned each and every pod that flew past it at unbelievable speeds. The scanner then sent a signal to a small outpost somewhere close by, once the signal had been run through a computer it gave the ship code that had passed it by.
"Whats this? It seems the scanner in sector 678.12 has just been activated by 7 space pods." A small green alien in planet trade armour said going through the codes. Another one sat on a chair spun around and looked at him. "So whose ships are they?" he asked. The other alien ran the codes through another computer and awaited the results. The little green alien gave a little shout in shock, the other looks at him strangely as he stumbled backwards. "Come on spit it out!" He shouted. "I-It's the saiyans!"
Now the other alien was in shock. "What?! I thought they had been dealt with, it was Friezas orders himself. We have to report this to him right away." The other alien nodded and rushed to another machine. "And find out where they are headed!" The little green one turned around confused. "How do I do that?" The other alien slapped his fish like face. "You idiot, send out one of the vapour following pods!" he little green one nodded and ran off in a hurry to report to Frieza.
DBZ~
Meanwhile Lord Frieza was sat in his hover chair while he sipped a glass of red wine. "Ahh… I do love these lovely fireworks in the morning." He said as he faced the large glass panel in his ship, allowing him to view out into space. Their right in front of him, a small planet was on the verge of exploding; the planet cracked and began to glow with bubbling hot energy before it obliterated into nothing but space dust. "AHAHAHAHAH!" Frieza laughed as he watched the planet explode like it was his favourite past time. On either side of him stood his two henchmen, one was a fat pink alien with spikes covering his head and body. He seemed to have a good sized chest but what followed was just a massive belly. The other was a very good looking man with light blue skin and green hair tied back into a plat. They both watched in shock, still neither of them could get used to watching an entire planet exploding. Suddenly a massager burst in almost tripping over as he entered through the sliding doors. "L-Lord Frieza sir!" The small alien shouted as he was holing a piece of paper. He was stood with his legs together, two of his arms behind his back and the other two saluting. "What is it?" Frieza said as the light from the exploding planet faded. "W-Well sire. W-We have found the answer to what you have been looking for my lord." Frieza took another sip of his wine and spun around in his hover chair. "Is that so?" He asked with interest. "Y-Yes my lord. We have heard rumours of their being mystical items that can grate any wish." This time Frieza smiled with interest. "Really. Please do go on." The alien nodded and began reading the report. "My lord we have found that on a planet named Namek, there are seven items called the dragon balls. Once you gather all seven they will grant you any wish, from immortality to unlimited power." Frieza smiled again. "Zarbon! Set a course for this Namek." Zarbon turned and bowed. "At once my Lord."
Frieza pointed at the messenger. "And you, you can go." He also bowed and walked out of the room. "Finally, I have found what I have been searching for. With immortality I will rule the universe forever! I want us at this planet Namek in two days tops!" The lizard commanded to Zarbon. He bowed and walked out. "Yes my lord."
Zarbon walked down the ships halls and corridors towards the central command unit. He walked in through the sliding doors and the crew all got up and saluted him. "Yes at ease men. Lord Frieza wishes to be at the planet Namek within two day. I trust you understand what will happen if we are not there by then." The men all nodded. "At once." Hey said. "Ok setting the coordinates to Namek now." Another said. "Entering hyper drive in 10." Zarbon nodded and walked out swishing his half cape as he turned. "So there really is a way to become immortal. With lord Frieza immortal he truly will be the strongest in the universe! No one will stop him and the galaxy will be his. It will truly be grate" Zarbon thought to himself as he walked back down towards the main chambers where Lord Frieza was.
DBZ~
In the darkness of space the saiyan space pods raced for the planet Namek, all seven of them traveling faster than the speed of light. They had been flying for four days now and now only one remained. "Kakarot was sleeping sat upright in his pods like usual, Bulma, Karrizt, Vegeta and Nappa were all asleep to, each one conserving there energy for Namek. However Raditz was still sat awake. He had been thinking about his pasts up to this point and how much of a wimp he had been all of his life. Now he would do whatever he could to chance that.
Meanwhile in one of the other pods Kumiko was also awake, she was thinking over how she got herself into these messes. "Well I guess it all started when I survived the explosion on planet Vegeta." She closed her eyes and sat back drifting into the past.
FLASHBACK~
"Hey Kumiko!" a voice shouted her from behind. She turned to face the voice realising it was he friend once she saw him. "Hey Turles." He replied. He smiled. "So you ready to earn the right to start concerning planets?" Kumiko nodded with a grin on her face, "Turles, I've been ready for years." She was ten years old living on the planet Vegeta at this moment in time, ready to fight for the right to start going out on missions and earning a name for yourself.
"Well come on, our fight is in ten minutes!" He shouted snapping her back into reality. She nodded and chased after him. Once they arrived at the fighting arena they bumped into their other team mate. "Tonpi! Hey how are you?!" Turles shouted. The young saiyan turned around to greet his fellow friends and team. "Hey Turles, Kumiko, and yeah good thanks, you guys ready for our fights?"
Turles punched his pal, "You bet, I'm raring to go!" Kumiko nodded and crossed her arms. "Let's win this thing!" the three saiyans walked into the fighting arena, first to step onto the ring was Turles. "Alright, go Turles!" Kumiko shouted Tonpi just crossed his arms and smiled.
END OF FLASHBACK~
"Arrive to the planet Namek in three minutes." The space pods computer spoke. Kumiko opened her eyes and looked out of her pods window; she could see the planet getting bigger and bigger the closer she got to it. "Ok everybody look sharp. Once we land regroup like always and then we will come up with a plan. Got it?!" Vegeta shouted down his scouter. Everybody nodded or replied with a simple yes.
The pods were now little but 10 seconds away from entering the planet's atmosphere. Each burnet its way through as it travelled faster than the speed of light, crashing down onto the planets crush with a loud thundering roar.
Meanwhile on the other side of the planet Namek, Frieza and his men had already landed and started to collect the dragon balls. Back to the saiyans Vegeta and the others were all standing in a circle. "So here's the plan." Vegeta said as he crossed his arms. "We split up into teams and find the dragon balls, is that understood?" The others nodded and formed their little teams. Raditz and Nappa joined up. Kakarot and Bulma went off together and Kumiko and Karrizt joined, leaving Vegeta to go off alone.
"So where should we look first you think?" Nappa said as he and Raditz we flying through the sky searching for any villages. Suddenly Raditzs face froze, "Do you feel that?!" he shouted. Nappas face took the same expression and they both raced to the ground to take cover. They both watched as Frieza and he gang fly past them holding three what looked to be dragon balls. Nappa and Raditz knew what they looked like because Kakarot and Bulma had told them. "That's Frieza!" Raditz hissed to Nappa. He nodded. "Yeah and he looks to have already gotten three dragon balls." "Let's follow them and see where they are heading."
"Are you crazy, do you want him to kill us?" Nappa said. "But we might be able to find a dragon ball." Raditz said. "Alright fine, but if anything happens it's your fault!" Nappa and Raditz took off running so that Frieza or his men could not detect them with their scouters.
Meanwhile Kakarot and Bulma had already stumbled across a small Namek village and had started killing for answers. "Tell me where the dragon balls are, otherwise this one dies next!" The Namek elder was on the floor dead with a hole through his chest, the others knew that they were too weak to do anything and just coward. "Don't say I didn't warn you!" Bulma shouted as she unleashed a right hand chop that decapitated the small Namek that was knelt before her. The others all cried out for her to stop but it was too late. "Now let's try again." Kakarot said.
"Do you still think this was a good idea?!" Nappa whispered to Raditz. Both saiyans were spying on Frieza and his men from afar. "Well, look they led us to a Namek village and they already have four dragon balls." Nappa slapped his face. "Oh yeah, and I suppose you want us to steal them from him don't you." Raditz didn't say anything. "Look Nappa!" he quickly shouted.
Nappa looked what Raditz was pointing at, a small Namekian was knelt over a larger one that got his ass handed to him by Dodoria one of Friezas right hand men. A bright yellow light was coming from his hands and then it vanished. Suddenly the Namek warrior stud back up in perfect health, like nothing had happened to him. "What the hell was that?" Nappa asked. "I think he healed him."
"Well, well that is quite a surprising ability little one." Frieza said. "Dodoria."
"Yeah lord Frieza." He replied as he walked back over to the Namek villagers ready to beat them again. "This time I'll just kill you, let's see if you can bring him back from the dead kid?" Raditz turned to Nappa. "He healed him that could come in handy, imagine if we had him heal us after we got injured, it could save so much time." Nappa looked at Raditz. "What are you saying, that we should rescue him and have him join us. Oh yeah that's a good one, hey Vegeta look what we found. I don't think so…" He turned to look back at Raditz but he was gone.
"Shit no Raditz!" he shouted. His voice alerted Frieza and his men to their presence but Raditz still landed a solid punch to Dodorias face knocking him flying into a Namek house. "Raditz!" Zarbon shouted. Friezas grin turned to a frown. "Well hello Frieza, if you don't mind I'll be taking this Namek. See ya!" He shouted as he grabbed the kid and let an energy blast explode onto the ground kicking up dust and debris allowing him to get out of there alive.
He landed next to Nappa, "Come on let's get out of here!" Nappa was too stunned to say anything so he just got up and flew off as fast as he could with Raditz. Dodoria got back up shaking his head. "Why that stupid monkey!" Frieza looked at him. "Dodoria! Get after them and bring me back that child now!" The fat pink alien nodded and took off into the sky as fast as he could.
Nappa and Raditz were flying as fast as they could still holding the kid. "What the hell did you do that for?!" Nappa said. Raditz was about to explain it in small words for his comrade when they noticed Dodoria catching them up. "Shit he's following us! What's his power level read at?" Raditz shouted. "Shit it's at 22,000. We have to take him together!" Raditz and Nappa quickly stopped taking Dodoria of guard.
"Well looks like you've both accepted your doom." Dodoria said as he smiled and cracked his knuckles. "I can't wait to pay you back for that sneak attack Raditz!" Raditz smiled. "Just try it." He quickly turned to the kid. "Can you fly?" He nodded. Raditz let him go. "Go and hide, and don't come out until I shout you. Got it?!" The little Namek nodded and flew down to the ground.
"First I'll kill you two, and then I'll take the kid back to lord Frieza." Dodoria said. Nappa and Raditz took a fighting stance. "Let's just see you try you fat fuck!" Nappa shouted. Dodoria frowned, "You'll pay for that!" He shouted as he charged in throwing a right uppercut at Nappa. The saiyan blocked the attack but felt the force through his guard. Raditz taking advantage quickly flew forwards and then spinning backwards slammed a kick into the back of his skull knocking his to the side of Nappa. Nappa then slammed his fist into the pink blobs jaw sending him flying to the ground. "Take that Dodoria!" Nappa shouted.
Both saiyans hovered in the air waiting for their opponent to come back for more. "Hey maybe we should take this time to run?" Raditz said. "What! No way, were just getting started." Dodoria suddenly burst through the air slamming a punch into Nappas gut doubling him over, and then followed up with a knee to the face sending Nappa spinning and slamming into the ground. Raditz flipped forwards kicking Dodoria in the face, he then quickly spun around and smashed a solid right cross into his gut. "Take this!" He shouted as he let loose a blast of energy from the same hand that was buried in Dodorias fat stomach. A large purple blast let loose and exploded knocking Raditz back from the shock wave.
He landed on the ground with Nappa who was still trying to catch his breath. "When did you get so strong?" Nappa asked with a questing face. "Shit behind you!" Raditz replied. Dodoria grabbed Nappa in a bear hug and started to squeeze. "Hahahaha! I've got you know baldy!" Nappa let out a cry of pain as Dodoria started to squeeze the life out of him. Raditz quickly taking in the situation jumped into the air and slammed his knee into the pink blobs face causing him to let go of Nappa, "Shit my nose!" Dodoria shouted in pain. Raditz and Nappa both shot their hands forwards unleashing a powerful energy blast each which connected with Dodoria blowing him to pieces.
Nappa fell onto one knee, "Shit that fat fuck broke my ribs." Raditz crossed his arms, "Maybe if you weren't so cocky you would have escaped without injury." "Shut it Raditz." The long haired saiyan quickly turned around. "Shit the kid! I forgot about him, he better not have run off otherwise-" He was cut off as the small Namek appeared from behind a large rock. "There he is, good you didn't run. Now heal Nappa here." The kid didn't move. "Look kid, if yu don't want to die I suggest you heal my friend here." The small Namek stepped backwards. "No! Your murders just like the others!"
Raditz smiled. "Were not like the others, we are saiyans. And we will kill each and every one of them and rule the universe! But how about I make you a deal. We will spar your race if you cooperate with us and heal my friends and I when we need, how does that sound?" The small Namek looked down, "Do you mean it?" Raditz held up his hand. "Cross my heart and hope to die." "Will you really leave us alone if I help you?" Raditz was starting to get angry now. "Yes for god's sake! Just do it already before I change my mind!" The kid nodded and walked over to Nappa who was sat on the ground clutching his chest. He held out his arms and the yellow light appeared again.
After about 15 seconds Nappa stood up, "Wow it doesn't hurt anymore, man this kids good. I already feel stronger!" Raditz crossed his arms and smiled, "See I told you he would come in handy. Now let's regroup with the others."
