Chapter 5 – Goodbye Kakarot! Prepare for the Saiyans!

Everyone had arrived not too long after the fight in Bulma's capsule copter. Raditz had gently put down Gohan next to him as held his baby sister in his arms. He had made a promise to his parents to protect and take care of her. Yet, he felt like he had broken it as he watched the light of Kakarot's shining eyes fade slowly. Bulma was the first over as she put a hand on Raditz's shoulder.

"I don't think a sensu is gonna help her," Raditz spoke quietly as he saw Krillin come over with the oh so familiar bag.

Krillin frowned as he couldn't help it. He wished there was something he could do…. Then it hit him…. The dragon balls!

"Raditz what about the dragon balls? They should be able to revive her," Krillin piped up making the group smile.

"Of course! They can grant any wish," Bulma emphasized," the problem is finding them."

"…. Four of them…. My house… In dresser…," Kakarot explained weakly as she coughed up some blood.

Bulma had a feeling Kakarot was trying to find them again. Now they would just have to find the other three and BAM Kakarot would be back. The happy moment faded when a weak chuckle was heard a few feet away. They turned in shock to see the bastard, Turles, was somehow still alive.

"These dragon balls you mentioned sound quite powerful. They might be useful," Turles spoke as he coughed up blood next to him," Don't think that killing me was a victory for during our entire fight I recorded the entire thing all the way up to now about those dragon balls. My comrades will be here in a year's time and both are even more powerful then I."

He cackled weakly as blood streamed out of his mouth. And that he was gone eyes rolled to the back of his head and unmoving. Everyone looked at the now dead saiyan in shock. More powerful then him?! The shock was stopped as soon as Kakarot coughed violently making blood splatter on her brother's shirt. Everyone looked back to her as her breath came in short gasps. Her head turned weakly to her brother as she smiled gently.

"Raditz… Promise to take care of Gohan for me…," she spoke quietly. A nod was all she needed as her smile grew a tiny bit.

"Good…. Goodbye everyone…. Tell Gohan that I love her…," she ended as her eyes closed slowly and took one last breath before her body completely stopped.

Even though they could bring her back it was still heart breaking to see her die. Then out of no where she just disappeared out of thin air. Everyone became confused a Raditz slowly got up off the ground.

'Kami… You sly bastard' thought Piccolo as he scowled. He watched Bulma pick up the unconscious Gohan in her arms as she let a small sigh looking at Raditz. He had never seen him so heart broken with his head lowered in utter shame and defeat.

"Hey. It's alright. With the dragon balls she'll be back in no time," Bulma spoke comforting to him as he turned towards her. If her heart wasn't broken it was now. Raditz's eyes had lost some its shine and looked almost tired.

"I know that. It's just that…. This shouldn't have happened to begin with….," Raditz spoke quietly as Bulma was about to speak up as Piccolo spoke up first.

"Enough with this sob fest. We have a year to train and prepare for these other saiyans. Kami took your sister's body and she is now probably going to do her own training as well. But before I leave I'm taking your sister's brat with me," Piccolo explained as he took a step forward.

Bulma held onto Gohan tighter as Raditz stepped in front of the two ready to attack Piccolo if he came any closer. It then became a harsh staring contest as both saiyan and namekian just glared down at each other. It was finally Raditz who broke the staring. He knew why the namekian wanted her. Not for harm, but for training. Raditz gently took Gohan from Bulma's arms as he handed her over to Piccolo.

"I swear to Kami if I so much as feel even the smallest drop in her energy I will paint the mountains with your blood namek," Raditz threatened sinisterly as he turned away.

Piccolo knew that Raditz never threatened anyone unless what he said was true. Which for once actually made the namekian extremely nervous, of course he didn't show it externally. And with that he flew off with the small girl in his arms.

"Raditz. What the hell were you thinking?! Piccolo is going to kill her," Bulma screeched at him with annoyance. He sighed slowly making him question why he had feelings for this blue haired woman.

"Listen. Piccolo isn't going to kill her. He is going to train her," Raditz spoke back calmly, "I know Kakarot said to take care of her, but…."

Bulma frowned as she watched that fire in his eyes go out again. She couldn't help it as she wrapped her arms around Raditz and hugged him. Raditz tensed slightly at the gesture, but relaxed slowly as he hugged back. After a moment they broke apart as Bulma smiled gently.

"I understand."

Raditz smiled gently at her as he started to feel a bit better. Bulma then looked towards the dead body of the saiyan. Then she got an idea.

"I know this is a bad idea, but do you think you can get that device on his face for me," Bulma began, "I would like to study it. Of course I'm kind of nervous the guy will suddenly get up again. So…,"

She didn't have to say anymore as Raditz walked over to his so called Uncle's body and removed the scouter from his face. He gently handed it to Bulma as he turned to leave, but before that he turned to Krillin.

"Get everyone together and meet me at Kami's lookout," He spoke bluntly to the bald monk turning quickly turning back to Bulma, "Also, that scouter you have isn't in our language so you might have to calibrate it." And with that Raditz took to the sky and left.

On a planet much farther from our heroes…

Turle's wasn't lying about sending all the information he had gotten to his comrades. They had received not too long after Turles had kicked the bucket. The tall bald one was the first to speak up about the news.

"Did you hear that? Looks like that third class low life finally got himself killed," he spoke to his much shorter comrade with flame like black hair, "Good riddance! Back stabbing bastard."

Of course his companion wasn't actually listening to him at the moment. He was busy trying to wrap his mind around a few things. For the one thing those dragon balls had the ability to bring people back from the dead. Which meant they could just as easily give him the immortality he so desired. But also one of the voices he had heard sounded oddly familiar to him. It was the female that had been fighting Turles, what was her name? Kakarot! Of course he almost forgot the bastard had told him and his comrade, known as Nappa, that his niece and nephew were alive on some back water planet known as Earth.

It was probably nothing. Kakarot was a third – class along with her annoying older brother, Raditz. But yet as he heard the fight the minute he heard Kakarot scream in pain a part of his neck started to burn like a bitch. Of course he kept the pain inside so the big idiot wouldn't interrogate. And yet after all of that the burn was still there and it hurt like hell. He was too stubborn to let the pain control him so he simply would grin and bear it. He was the prince of all saiyans for Kami's sake!

"I don't care about back stabber it's the information on those so called Dragon Balls I'm more interested in," he spoke up finally to Nappa.

"That is true. I mean they can bring people back from the dead. Who knows what else they could do," Nappa started in excitement, "We could wish for anything we wanted and none of those weaklings could stop us, Vegeta."

Vegeta smirked evilly as he threw the limb of the poor alien that got in his way and stood up. Yes! Nobody could stop them on that pathetic planet! Getting the dragon balls were going to be child's play as both saiyans went off to finish their mission on this planet so they could head straight to Earth instantly.

Back on Earth…

Piccolo had found the perfect spot to train the brat. The only problem was waking her up. So, he did the most obvious thing he could. He threw her right into the small pond right in front of him instantly jolting the poor girl awake! She sputtered and flailed for a couple of seconds only to realize that the water only hit her hips.

She then noticed Piccolo and had a practically had a heart attack. Who the hell was this guy?! Where is here mommy? She got out of the water and looked at Piccolo with slight curiosity. Piccolo was most surprised he was expecting the brat to run like hell away. Nope except she scowled at him, not even caring that he could snap her neck so easily.

"Where's my mommy," she asked him in a calm demeanor.

Unlike everyone else he wasn't gonna sugar coat the answer. "Your mother is died."

He watched her face falter as that spark he caught a glimpse of dissipated. Her head lowered as he could hear her sniffle. 'Guess the brat isn't as tough as I thought' he thought smugly. That was until the sniffling instantly stopped and she snapped her head up at him. That's when he saw that small fire go ablaze as she glared with anger.

"I must admit kid. You are full of surprises. Let's hope you keep that fire in your training," Piccolo explained as he smirked. Yep! This was going to be most interesting.

"What's taking everyone so damn long," a female voice spoke in mild irritation, "We could've started to train minutes ago."

The women who had spoken was known as Ataashi, the younger twin sibling to the womanizing Yamcha. Her hair was cut in a short bob cut, but except of having black hair like her brother her hair was an auburn red which resembled that of burning flames. Yet she still had some patches of ebony black within it. Her eyes a dark hazelnut brown with shards of shining black onyx within them. She wore a light blue gi with dark blue weighted undertop. Unlike her damn brother she was fighter of the two. Always training to out due her rival/friend Kakarot.

"I'm sure everyone will show up in moment," Yamcha replied nervously at his very 'enthusiastic' sister.

"They better be. Krillin told us to meet here in order to explain some sorta situation," Ataashi spoke, "Let's hope this situation isn't as insane as protecting the planet from aliens or some shit."

Just as she said that she felt the familiar ki of Raditz, and Krillin just a few feet away. Along with Mr. Three-eyes Tien and little Chiaotzu. 'Took them long enough' the mostly red head thought as the group of four landed not too far from the siblings.

"Tien. It's good to see ya," Yamcha pipped up cheerfully seeing the triclops hadn't changed much in the past fourish years.

"We don't have time for pleasantries bro. I wanna know why the hell you asked us to the look out," Ataashi butted in before Tien could reply, "Also, where's your sister Raditz? She is stuck to you like bloody ass glue."

Raditz frown had deepened from the comment. Yes, it was true where ever one saiyan sibling was the other wasn't too far away. It was just naturally for siblings in saiyan culture to stick close to one another. He sighed slowly as he prepared to tell the news.

"Me and Krillin have asked you here today, because a threat is heading to earth in a years' time," Raditz began slowly, "They are saiyans just like me and my sister, except much stronger then any one of us here. One of them had already came to Earth in order to retrieve me and Kakarot. But….. We were able to beat in the expense of my sister's death."

Everyone, except for Krillin, looked at Raditz at wide eyes trying to digest the information. Kakarot had actually died?! To them, her dying was considered impossible to say the lease, but learning this news made them lose some hope for saving the planet. Ataashi was the first to snap out shock.

"Well….. I guess we should start our training then. Don't want to end up like a disappointment like my brother."

The mood lightened slightly as everyone snickered as Yamcha said 'Hey' at her rude comment.

This was it. The start of the six individuals training by Kami, in order to prepare for the Saiyans attack.

Welp! There you folks go! I wanted to end it here so then the next chapter could be focused on Kakarot. Don't worry folks I'll try to shorten the chapters' lengths a bit so don't worry. Please leave a review and ask any questions you want to know about the story. See ya next time! Peace!
