Revenge

Epilogue

6 months later on Namek

Dende stood before the crowd that had assembled to witness the usage of the Dragonballs. The balls, which continually glowed brightly, had been collected to resurrect Son Goku, who had died fighting the one that had nearly destroyed the Namek-Seijin race.

Gohan, Piccolo, and the rest of the Z team stood back, watching and waiting in anticipation.

Finally Dende stepped forward and the crowd grew silent as they knew the moment had come.

Dende began speaking the native language of Namek, calling Porunga, the mystical dragon, to come forward and grant their wish. A moment later, the balls glowed even brighter, and a brilliant flash ensued, which streamed high into the air. The bright light slowly materialized into Porunga.

"You have called me from the Dragonballs. I will grant three wishes. Speak the first now!" Porunga bellowed.

Dende looked to Gohan. "Wish my father back please Dende." Gohan said.

Nodding Dende turned back to Porunga and spoke in the Namekusei tongue to wish Son Goku back to life.

"So it shall be done." Porunga answered. His eyes glowed a deep red for an instant, and Son Goku instantly appeared before them all.

"Otousan!!" Gohan screamed as he ran to his father.

"Gohan!" Goku said as his son threw himself into Goku's arms. Everyone cheered for the hero.

"Gohan..." Goku whispered into his son's ear. "I knew you could do it. I knew you would defeat Freeza."

Hugging his father tightly, Gohan began to cry in joy.

Porunga interrupted the festivites by bellowing, "What is your second wish?"

Kuririn stepped forward. "Dende, please wish everyone that was killed back to life on Earth, except for the evil people."

Dende spoke the wish, and again Porunga conceded to it. His eyes glowed red again.

"All the humans that have died in the last year are alive again, except for the evil hearted ones. What is your third wish?" Porunga asked.

No one had a wish. Finally Goku said, "Piccolo, if you and Kami fused doesn't that mean we need a God?"

Piccolo nodded and said, "Yes, our Dragonballs are useless rocks now."

Goku smiled and said, "Well, let's wish for a new God."

"That won't be necessary, Son Goku." announced the Namek elder.

"Eh?" asked Goku, confused.

"Dende has the knowledge and power to become the God of Earth. We shall send him with you." The elder replied.

Dende blinked in surprise. Gohan and Kuririn cheered with joy.

"That is, if Dende wishes to go."

Dende sat silent for a moment. Finally deciding, he announced, "Yes, I will go."

"It's settled then," said Goku.

Porunga again interrupted them, "Um..do you have a third wish?"

Goku whispered to Dende, "Can we wish for some food? I'm starving."

Dende, embarrassed, pretended not to hear.

They passed on using the third wish, and the Dragonballs scattered across the world again. After a round of goodbyes, our heroes boarded their spaceship and headed for home.

**********************************************************************************

A tiny insect flew across the still ravaged ground, searching for evidence of the tremendous battle that had been fought here only 6 months ago. Running continuous scan programs, it searched for any and all traces of DNA that it could find.

Finding something, the insect flew at a rapid pace, landing on a nearby rock. Slowly moving under the overturned rock, the robot spy bug found what it had been looking for. The rock was stained with blood. The DNA was unknown to the robot, so it was from an alien life form. It collected it's sample, and ran another scan to make sure it missed nothing. It found a second sample, but a different DNA. The DNA was similar to the patch of stained blood it had just found. So, it was a lifeform like the one it had just found.

Monitoring the insect's actions from his laboratory, Dr. Gero stood up and smiled. "Finally, I have found Freeza and his father's DNA."
