Revenge
Chapter Six
creak....the door sounded as it slowly opened. Piccolo stepped out of the Room of Spirit and Time looking a little disheveled, but otherwise not much different. Gohan, now a year older, followed, his clothes now nothing but rags, and his hair much longer.
Piccolo looked around, expecting to see both Kami and Mr. Popo, yet neither were to be seen. Odd, he thought, where are they? I feel Kami's KI, he's definitely here.
Gohan asked, "What is it, Piccolo-san?"
"Something is wrong, Kami should be here, NANI?!" That said, he ran to the edge of the palace and looked down to the Earth. "F..Freeza is here...."
Gohan shuddered visibly. "Freeza! But I thought he wasn't supposed to be here for almost another week!"
"Apparently he arrived sooner than expected, this isn't good." Piccolo said.
"I feel several KIs approaching him, one very large one, and several smaller. It must be Vegeta, Kuririn, and the rest." Piccolo said. Noticing something else, he again stopped.
"Piccolo-san, what is that weird fog?" Gohan asked.
"Oh no, it's a controlling mist. Whoever released it will control anyone not powerful enough to counteract it. But why would Ka...."
"Kami had nothing to do with it, rather my master released it. It is truly a shame my master is not here to deal with you, Piccolo." A new voice said.
Spinning around, Piccolo looked to the source of this voice. Eyes widening in shock, he saw Kami and Popo both encased in tiny glass bottles. Four figures stood by them, grinning evilly.
"Who are you? Who is this master you speak of? Answer me or I will kill you!" Piccolo demanded.
Gohan stood back, not understanding what was happening.
The apparent leader of the small group, a tall, elvish looking humanoid with blue tinged skin stepped forward. "I am Arumond, and my master is Garlick Jr. who you know well." He laughed evilly.
"Garlick Jr.! He was knocked into the Dead Zone!" Piccolo said in surprise.
"He came back." Arumond shrugged, "And he will rule this planet. Even now, the mist is spreading across the Earth, it is only a matter of time before everyone is enveloped by it."
"Where is your master now?" Piccolo demanded.
"He is investigating something, he left us here to guard Kami and his companion. Looks like we get to have some fun as well." One of the other figures, extremely tall with a pale gray complexion, announced.
"Shit....Gohan." Piccolo said.
"Piccolo-san?" Gohan replied.
"Go help the others, I will catch up as soon as I deal with this situation." Piccolo said.
"But Piccolo-san..."
"Go!! This isn't a game, the others need your power!!"
Gohan opened his mouth to say something else, thought better of it, then nodded and flew off.

"I want this planet scouted. If you find any powerful beings, report at once using your scouters. I will accept no failure, the Saiyajins must be found." Freeza demanded.
"Hai, Freeza-sama!" The men shouted, and all flew off to search the planet.
Well, Vegeta, last of the Saiyajin along with that child, Freeza thought. Will you hide, or will you face your deaths honorably.
**********************************************************************************
The army, fixed on the current position of the unidentified object, headed toward it.
"Sir! What the hell is that?" a yound officer pointed towards a large mist heading towards them.
"I don't know son, but I want all forces on alert until we can be sure what it is." The commanding officer informed.
The forces stopped, and prepared themselves if necessary. The mist passed through them......
**********************************************************************************
"Kuririn! Doesn't that large fog seem unusual?" Yamucha asked.
"Yes. I don't think it's safe to fly through, it might be some trick of Freeza's" Kuririn said.
The two pulled up and flew above the fog. A flock of birds, who had strayed into the fog, suddenly burst after them. Surprised, Kuririn and Yamucha flew faster, and quickly outdistanced the birds.
"What the hell?" Kuririn muttered.
"That was certainly something you don't see everyday. The only problem is that Freeza's soldiers surely picked up the increase in our KI due to speeding up."
"You're right, better get ready for a fight." Kuririn said.
Yamucha swallowed and nodded.
**********************************************************************************
Tenshinhan and Chausu had also avoided the cloud of mist.
"I just felt Kuririn's KI. Surely Freeza has also picked up on it. We should join up with them." Tenshinhan said.
"Agreed." replied Chausu.
They soared off towards Kuririn and Yamucha.
**********************************************************************************
"Freeza-sama, we have noticed a large human army approaching your position. The strongest power is only 12, but can we destroy it anyway?" A soldier asked via scouter.
"Heh, these humans are not worth the trouble, but feel free to destroy them." Freeza replied.
"Arigato, Freeza-sama." The soldier looked to his three companions, "Let's have some fun."
They flew directly in front of the army and landed. The humans quickly fired, which Freeza's soldiers dismissed, laughing. They walked up to the front line of soldiers and each punched one human, killing them instantly. The rest of the humans, however, suddenly opened their eyes, which were a brilliant pink. They all suddenly broken into a run at the four surprised minions.
"What is this?" a minion yelled, as a dozen troops suddenly jumped at him. Being a low ranking soldier for Freeza, he was powerful enough to easily deal with this type of situation, but not this many people at once. He was taken down by the men, who opened their mouths to reveal sharp fangs. The minion didn't have a chance to scream before they all pierced his neck.
Watching this is horror, two others were taken down just the same. The last quickly flew off to report to Freeza.
**********************************************************************************
Another group of Freeza's soldiers flew along, searching for the Saiyajin, when they all simultaneously felt an extremely large KI heading towards them at high speeds.
"Freeza-sama said very large KIs must be reported." One of the dozen men said.
"You're right....wait, it's vanished!" Another commented.
Suddenly a dozen scouters signaled at once that the KI was behind them. They all turned around to see a figure they all knew, reviled, and feared.
"Ve...Ve...Vegeta!!!!!" They all said.
"Hahaha, so you are the first to see me. And the first to die, unfortunately." Vegeta said. This said, the men looked at each other, and suddenly flew off, desperate to escape from certain death.
Vegeta smiled and pointed his finger at the fleeing soldiers. A single blast flew from the extended finger, which quickly enveloped the soldiers, disentigrating them.
Vegeta licked his lips and flew off.
**********************************************************************************
Freeza felt his scouter register. "Hmm....3 very large KIs are approaching this position. It must be Vegeta, the Saiyajin brat, and the Namek-seijin bug."
The lone survivor of the army encounter suddenly landed. "Freeza-sama!" He quickly explained what had happened.
"Interesting, it seems these humans might be a little more difficult to control than I had originally thought. Still, I hate cowards." That said, Freeza blasted the poor soldier, killing him instantly.
Freeza has begun to act. Piccolo suddenly has four enemies to face. Gohan and Vegeta are rushing to fight Freeza while the rest of the Z-team get ready to deal with Freeza's men. What is the 3rd large KI heading towards Freeza? Find out in the next chapter!
