A/N: Have a look back at the bottom of Chapter 19 I have added a line of Frieza's but it will change the story completely.

Chapter 20: …. He Come's Back Stronger!

Piccolo had just explained the event's of planet of Earth to his Namekian brothers and explained why exactly he and h the others had come to use them when he felt it. Goku's power level which he had been monitoring since he had left the Sayian had been incredible high moments before but now it had gone completely disappeared of the face of the planet.

"No!" Piccolo yelled turning around to face the direction when he last felt Goku's Ki. The Namek's fist were clenched in rage.

Dende looked up at Piccolo slightly confused and then up at Moori. The elderly Namek was looking sad as he too felt Goku's power disappear.

"I'm sorry for your friend, I could feel that he was pure in heart and truly noble intention's. He is a great lost to the universe and I truly wish their was something you could do" Moori's voice was laced with sorrow as he spoke.

Upon realising exactly what the two older Namekian's were talking about Dende lowered his face away as hot red tears rolled down the young boy's face. He didn't know Goku but he truly felt great sorrow over the fat he had died especial since he had essentially died in the act of saving him.

"You can do something" Piccolo's gruff voice cut the air as he turned his piercing eyes onto Moori's own. "You can help me get the Dragonball's so I can wish him back to life."

Their was silence for a moment as Moori kept Piccolo's gaze the elder Namek was considering the request but after a while the former merely bowed his head his eyes fixed on the soft waves of the green ocean beneath him.

"I am sorry I truly am, But you see I cannot allow you to use the Dragonball's" Moori's voice was filled with remorse.

Piccolo was visible shocked at this his eyes grew wide with a mixture of surprise and angrier however the Namekian unclenched his fist moments later as he composed himself.

"Why?"

It wasn't a question it was a demand Piccolo demanded to know the reason why his fr… his friend wasn't able to be revive.

Moori looked up now their was no tear on his eye's like his young son's no the elder had determined prideful eye's.

"We do not treat are dragonball's as carelessly as what your other half dose on your own planet" Moori began his voice was laced with bitterness and a small hint of angrier. "They are sacred objects that when collected together opens up the portal to the sacred realm of the Dragon gods and bring forth the Dragon of dream's Porunga. It has been in trusted to us the Namekian people to secure the Dragonball's and allow only the pure hearted the chance to seek an audience with Porunga as so they can have they may have their wish granted. You my brother are not pure hearted you may not be evil but you are neither good and I can sense that you have done terrible thing's in your past. No I won't allow it, your other half may have decided to forego his protection duties to the ball's, that can bring to this plain the Dragon of Spirit Shenron and allow any to seek an audience with him. This is my choice and you will not change my mind"

Angier pure utter anger boiled up inside of Piccolo as he glared menacingly at Moori. The tall Namek wanted nothing more than to go back to his old ways and kill the older Namek for not cooperating with him it would have been almost to easy. But no that was not the way Piccolo had long since relished due to his time with Gohan that you didn't get anything you wanted by killing anyone. No to get anyone one to do anything you would have to cater to them.

Piccolo exhaled and took in a calming breath as he focused his mind trying to find a way to get round Moori's rule of only allowing the pure heated to see Porunga. The answer came like a bolt out the blue and the Namek cursed himself for not thinking of it sooner.

"If someone pure hearted asked to grant a wish you would allow it?" Piccolo asked his eyes fixed on Moori.

"Yes I would" Moori replied before continuing with a frown upon his face. "Though I am afraid my brother your friend was one of the rare cases the universe has to other I doubt there is another warrior like him on this planet"

"You think so hay?" Piccolo replied with a genuine smile upon his face. "I think I may just prove you wrong follow me"

~DBZ~

To say that Gohan was just a little bit tense really was just an understatements, a more accurate observer would say he was lived. The small Demi-Sayian sat alone on a rock outside the entrance of the Capsule Corp ship a rock was clasped in Gohan's hand.

The boy was alone when he felt his fathers Ki disappeared completely without a trace due to Bulma taking residence in the ship bathroom taking a long shower.

Crack! The rock in Gohan's hand turned to dust with just the slightest grip of his finger's it was effortless the Demi-Sayian didn't even have to put any thought into it. The young Demi-Sayian longed to rush off in the direction were he last felt the presence of his father in order to help to save him if he must but Gohan knew he couldn't not yet anyway he had a job to do and that was to protect Bulma and the ship.

Then he felt Piccolo Ki heading towards him at a rapid speed. Two other less powerful Ki's were with him but Gohan didn't think about them just yet for at that moment he was letting out a soft sigh due to the releif that spread though out his body.

"Come on" Gohan moaned though he was relived that he was soon to be reunited with his mentor the Demi-Sayian was still anxious. Anxious to know exactly what had happened to his father.

Five long draw out minintes past before Piccolo finially landed a few feet away from Gohan and the ship followed closly by Dende and Moori both of the later's were looking up wide eyed at the Namekian ship. Neither of the two young or old had seen one of the ships their ansetors use to travel around in looking to educate and help near by planets before in their life. They had only heard stories passed down from Guru their grand elder who had lived in that glorious time to see a relic from back at the peak of their races was truly breath taking for them both young and old.

Gohan didn't even register the two other Namek's station next to Piccolo the boy's only focus was on his marster. The Demi-Sayian literaly flew in their in his haste to meet Piccolo he wanted to hug his marster to hold him close and for Piccolo to tell him that everything was ok just like Gohan was sure his dad would have if it was Goku and not the Namek that had come back from their confrontation with Frieza and his men.

However Piccolo wasn't Gohan's father the Namek sure the boy approach and knew very well of his intentions to embrace with him. The Namek raised a solutary hand up in the air and it was enough to halt the Demi-Sayian's progress towards him. Why Piccolo stopped Gohan from receiving a hug from him was a simple reason. It wasn't because he didn't care about the boy it was quite the oppersite he cared more for Gohan than he cared for anything in his life. No Piccolo merely felt awkward with any sigh of affection be it vebal or physical and tended to avoid it were ever possible.

"Your father is dead" Piccolo said gruffly his face not showing even a hint of emotion despite Gohan face displaying the heart break that the boy had instantly hit the boy when he heard the news.

Piccolo knew he was being blunt knew he could have handeled the situation in a much nicer way but had decided not to. Their was simple no time for emotional comfort Gohan's life and his own life was in danger with Frieza's presence on the planet and possibilty of bring back Goku and the rest of the Z fighter who died on Earth back with the dragonballs grew less and less likly with each passing second.

"Don't cry" Piccolo snapped with a snarl as he began to see the glistening tears in Gohan's eyes. "We don't have time for tears not if we want your father back."

The Namek knew he was being horrible he could see in Gohan's eyes that the Demi-Sayian was hurt by the lack of comfort but Piccolo didn't care about hurting feelings. Feelings he reasoned could repaired over time death on the other hand could only be fixed with magic balls one set of which was currently ordinary stone boulders the other had a few balls in the clutches of a intergalatic tyrant that not even Goku could defeat.

Piccolo knew the smart thing to do at that moment in time was to scoop Gohan up into the ship and get Goku's blue haired friend to take them back to Earth right at that moment. But he couldn't the Namek had never run away from anything in his life and he wasn't about to start now. But Piccolo wasn't a fool he knew he couldn't take Frieza on a lone he knew he needed Gohan to be ready to fight to have any chance of winning the seemily unwinnerble battle.

"What do we need to do?" Gohan asked the Demi-Sayian voice quivered a bit with supressed grief. But he was looking at Piccolo with determinded eyes, eyes he had back on Earth when he was training for the Sayian's.

Piccolo allowed himself to smile a small geniun smile as he looked into Gohan's eyes. "He has gotten brave" The Namek thought to himself. "And to think he was nothing but a scared child when i first meet him.

But time was short and Piccolo knew that the Dragonball's were the most vital iteams at that moment in time what a tyrant like Frieza who seemed to have anything you could possible want could wish for was a geniunly scary thought to the Namek who hoped to at least stop such evil getting what they wanted. "hmm, who would of thought that i would be preventing evil rather than creating it" Piccolo began to muse to himself and then stopped. They had wasted enough time already.

Piccolo turned his head and nodded at Moori the elder Namek stepped forward begining to stride towards Gohan the latter of whom had just noticed the other Namek's smiled awkwardly before opening his mouth to beg a greeting.

"Hello I'm Gohan nice to meet you sir" The boy held out his hand for a handshake trying to keep the manners taught to him by his mother when he meet strangers or authority figures.

Moori looked at the hand outstretched in front of Gohan geniun confused before he smiled kindly down at the boy.

"Hello i am Moori one of the Villiage elders of this planet nice to meet you Gohan"

The elder then scooped up Gohan's hand in his own much like the traditional Earth way before turning it over and licked the palm.

Gohan felt his body shake in disgust as he mentely screamed out in horror. "He licked me! he licked me !". Though Gohan didn't say this allowed he kept his silence.

Oblivious to the Demi-Sayian's disgust Moori smiled at the boy and moved to place his hand on the boy's head.

"What are you doing" Gohan asked cautiously suddenly aware how close Moori was to him the old Namek was mere inches away.

"I am going to read your mind it will allow me to work out what your true intentions are alot quickier and easier"

Gohan was about to argue but wasn't able to due to the fact the Namek elder had already placed a hand ontop of the young boys head. Suddenly the Demi-Sayian saw every single second sight he had ever seen in his life time, smelt every single smell and felt all the pain ach over his body from the blows he suffered from Piccolo's training and the battle with the Sayian's. It lasted no more than five seconds but it was over powering when Moori released his green wrinkily hand away from Gohan's head the young boy couldn't help but stumble back until he fell over on to his backside.

Gohan was panting from the extersion though he had done nothing it felt like he had flown across the world twich and then done a full day spar with both his father and Piccolo. Looking up the Demi-Sayian saw Moori looking down on him the Namekian eyes were filled with liquid and Gohan quickly figured out that he was crying but he couldn't work out why.

"So much pain" Moori muttered under his breath before turning to face Piccolo. "A child at his age should not have suffered and seen the sights that he has and the resposibilty how can you heap so much on a mere boy?"

Piccolo looked back into the older Nameks eyes with the same emotionless expression.

"We did what we had to do to survive. If Gohan didn't fight we would have lost anyway and he would have been taken away by the Sayian's it's the only way" Piccolo's gruff voice was cold like ice and it sent shivers down the back off Moori's spine.

"But he's a child..." Moori began to argue back but was quickly interupted by Piccolo.

"He was a child" Piccolo snapped sharply. "He is now a warrior a protector of his planet. Now enough of this guilt trip your trying to put me on. Will you let him use the Dragonball's?"

Gohan looked at Piccolo confused not really following exactly going on due to his mind still being dizzy from Moori reading it.

Moori sighed a small soft sigh before anwsering.

"His heart is pure, even purer than his fathers. Their is no evil desire within him, he dosen't even want to fight" Moori spat the last part out angrily as he looked at Piccolo.

"I know" Piccolo replied simply before turning away. "But sometimes fighting is the only option."

Moori was stunded it was the first time since meeting Piccolo that he sensed even a hint of compassion within him. It only took a moment for the elder Namek to figure out why and he turned round and smiled down at Gohan. "That boy can turn even the most stubborn villien into a hero" The Namek thought with a little bit of pride.

"Right" Moori suddenlt said allow causeing all attention to quickly turn to him. "I have made up my mind i shall bear to you Gohan the Dragonball that i have sworn to protect"

With that the elderly Namek hunched over clutching his stomach as he choghed and splattered green silivar onto the ground. Dende rushed over to help his villige elder but Moori merely held up a hand to stop the boy's progress. It took seveal hurls and intakes of breath until finial and much to the disgust of Gohan. A hugh gleaming orange ball covered in hot wet silivar poped out of Moori's mouth and landed on the sort blue grass. As the elderly Namek took in great intakes of breath Gohan couldn't help but count the four stars on the ball.

"Cleaver" Piccolo commented also eyeing the ball. "Swallowing the ball like that so the only way someone could get to it would be by destroying you and thus the ball inside you. Still it's not fool proff i would have just ripped open your stomach and take it out myself if i really had to."

Moori ingnored Piccolo's dry sense of humour and instead focused on Gohan. The elder Namek reached out his arm's and placed the into the Gohan's own two hands. The Demi-Sayian wanted to squirm away from the ball that was still covered in spittle due to how disgusting it looked but didn't due to the fact he didn't want to appear rude.

"You are now the guardien of the four star ball protect it well young one" Moori said calmly before turning his gaze to Piccolo. "Mine and Dende's villige has been destroyed their is nothink left for us their. I request that we may accompany you on your journey to help your friends."

Piccolo crossed his arms and merely nodded his head to show that he accepted the request. The taller Namek then turned his head to look up into the green sky above him. The warmth of the three sun's licked at Piccolo's skin making the Namek feel regenerated with energy.

Their was a small pause as the four heros stood in silence. The sound of Bulma taking a shower could be heared visible in the background. It was Gohan who began to talk in order to break the silence.

"So what are we going to do now?" Gohan asked. It was a simple question that was married with many differen't possible anwsers.

"Simple" Piccolo began his eyes fixed on to the sky. "We go find the villiges that Frieza or his men haven't destroyed and ask them for their Dragonball's once we have all of their free one's secure we can work out a plan to try and get the one's that Frieza has. "

Their was a long pause no one in the group seemed to like the idea of trying to remove the Dragoball's from Frieza especial when they were right unmder thge tyrant's nose. Piccolo seemed to have sensed this and quickly added.

"If we can't find away to retrive Frieza's Dragonball's from his we can simple leave the planet with all the remaining Nameks and head back to Earth. At the very least it will stop him granting his wish"

Their was a nod of agreement from both Gohan and Moori however Dende didn't nod the boy looked a little bit scared and unsure of himself until he felt an arm on his shoulder. The young Namekian looked up to see Gohan's face next to his the Demi-Sayian being slightly taller than the Namek.

"You scared?" Gohan asked.

Dende merely nodded.

"Don't worry i am too"

Piccolo ignored the exchange between Gohan and Dende and strod right over to Moori.

"So were's the first place we should go then? You know the planet better than me and Gohan do so you should know were best to start" Piccolo's voice was as usual devoid of emotion as he spoke.

Moori considered Piccolo for a moment and it almost seemed as if he was still considering weather or not to trust the taller Namek. But after a while the villiage elder pointed towards the southen hemisphere of the planet.

"We should head over their in the direction of the great grand elder Guru's home, He is not only the guardien of the one star ball but is the wisest of our race and also the creator of these ball's it would be best to go see him first"

Piccolo gave a nod before turning towards Gohan.

"Go grab the Dragon rader and tell Bulma if she dosen't want to be left alone then she better be ready in five minites"

Gohan nodded quickly before turning and running into the ship.

~DBAT~

Frieza was standing not sitting like he would have perfered but due to the fact his hover chair was now broken thanks to Goku he was force to stand at the helm of his ship. The screen above the Frost Demon displayed the imagie of a Sayian who looked very much like Goku apart from his darker skin and black/grey Sayian armour attire who was smiling back at the Frost Demon a somewhat ammused smile upon the Sayian's face.

"So he broke your chair" Turles asked with a chuckle as he looked right down at Frieza.

"Yes" Frieza said in a voice that was not half amused as Turles own.

The tyrant's eyes were slights and filled with surpressed rage. Turles was always too over confident and brash but he was useful. As the only Sayian that Frieza could trust now due to the rest of the races seemily revolt Frieza had no other choice to grunt and bare the Sayian's somewhat disrespectful attitude.

"King Vegeta is also here as well i think that your race is here to try and stage what i belive a revolution against me, Now they pose no threat to me but my minnon's i am afraid are not as sturdy and at the moment i am requireing the services of more sturdyier men. I am sure the men i gave to you after Ginyu's demise will be more than a little useful in this job don't you agree" Frieza's voice was calm and poilet but was still cold ice cold.

The Frost Demon smiled when he saw Turles expression change from mild ammusement to one of seriousness and excitment.

"Vegeta is their huh? And he's been foolish enough to revolt against you my lord" Turles was faking poilitness now such was his egareness to have permission to personal finish of Vegeta the son of the man responsible for banishing off planet Vegeta.

Frieza eyes didn't change though inside the tyrant was snikering to himself. He had knew the thought of fighting Vegeta would get the serious side of Turles out the side the Frost Demon liked most. The tyrant only ever put up with the Sayian's cocky side because he needed soulders to fight against the Southern ruler and after Ginyu was killed as the hand's of the South Tyrant Turles had quickly turned into Frieza's most trusted minion.

"Yes he is very foolish Turles and if you and your Cusher Corps get here fast enough i may even allow you to be the one to be the one to teach him a lesson"

Turles eyes light up and the Sayian began to lick his lip's hungrily.

"Of course my lord we shall leave straight away"

The Sayian then to walk away but was stopped when he heard Frieza's calm voice call back to him from the monitor.

"Before you leave don't forget to grab the seeds for that tree of your's that produces that lovly fruit that i know you love so much, I feel that once this is all over i would very much like to share a celebratery meal with you once this is all over and done with."

Turles quickly turned and bowed respectfully before the communications were cut off.

Frieza turned from his own monitor to see Zarbon standing in the doorway of the room. The green skinned humaniod immediatly bowed his hand place over his heart.

"My lord with all due respects is it wise to be trusting a Sayian at this moment in time?" Zardon's voice was shaky and wobberly but the ellite warrior still manage to get his words out.

Frieza looked down at Zarbon with cold threatening eyes.

"Are you questionning my decison Zarbon?" The tyrant's voice was laced with control venmon which made the hair on Zarbon's neck stand on end.

"No my lord just curious" Zarbon quickly replied still shaking from fear.

Frieza's eyes were still icey cold when he turned around to face the monitor he had just been viewing. His hand's were now bald into fist behind his back just above his tail.

"It is not your job to be curious or to think Zarbon it is your job to take order's do i make myself clear"

"Yes Lord Frireza"

"Good now get out of here and go scearch for the Namekian's that you lost when that Sayian attacked you before i blast you on the spot"

Zarbon's eye's widen and he reacted immediatly a purple aura surronded the ellight warrior as he raced down the hall less than a second later a loud powerful explosion echoed around the ship.

~DBZ~

Beep beep! The sound echoed around the cold matalic room of the healing chamber of King Vegeta's ship. It was not nearly as flash or as fancy as the Kings own personal healing chamber but it still did the job just as well. Ten machine all set in a row were in the room and the medical staff all sat idle awaiting for some work to do. Indeed they would be busy once the first wave of warriors came back from an attack on one of the Villiages in the area near the ship. But at that moment in time only one tank was in use.

In tank number four naked with various deep cut's and bruises was a tall spikey haired Sayian who had been found upon the ships landing and had been quickly taken in by the other Sayian's. The medic's had never seen a Sayian of any kind have such injuries. Every single one of his bones was broken and the iconic tail pride and joy of every single living Sayian was gone. No doubt ripped from the warrior in combat.

A loud beep echoed around the room as the matalic doors of the healing chamber opened up to reveal a tall muscular Sayian with a shiny bald head. The Medic staff immediatly rised from what they were doing before forming a long neat line all hand's to their forehead to sault their general.

"At ease" Nappa said with his ruff strong voice as he eyed the medical starff who had all began to lower their arms. "You"

The Sayian pointed at a small puple alien with three horns ontop of his head. The alien stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"What can i do for you general sir" The timmied alien asked in a timid voice.

"What are the results of the DNA test? who is he?" It was not a question it was an order.

The purple alien quicly rushed to the table near the healing tank and opened up the note book that had been used to record data of the patient condition.

"He is Kakarot the son of Bardock, ranked third class. He was presumed dead inaction after his mission to take over a planet called Earth"

"Interesting" Nappa replied as he leaned in to look at Goku in the healing tank. "And how long till he recovers".

"Two hours ... sir ... it shouldn't be longer than two hours"

"Good" Nappa declared straighing up before heading for the exit. "When he awakes you are to give him armour and direct him to the helm of the ship King Vegeta wishes to talk to him"

"Yes sir" The small purple alien replied saluting Nappa as the Sayian left.

Hay guys sorry the chapter is abit later than normal this week but i hope it was worth the wait alot his happening now and the story is really starting to progress. Thank you for all your on going support and i still hope you are enjoyinmg the story as much as i am.

Power levels for last chapter which i failed to mention are as followed.

Goku base: 60,000

Cui:25,000

Dodoria:33,000

Zarbon:40,000

Goku Kao-ken times 2: 120,000

Goku Kao-ken times 10:600,000

Yes i am aware that they are all stronger than in cannon but it is simple because they have all trained more due to Frieza policy of training due to the fact he needs stronger troops in order to fight the Southern ruler.

Well done to Kid Goku forever and Ky11 who rightly assumed Goku wasn't dead. :oP
