Chapter 34
Um… damn. Things have gotten fucked up over the past two years. After that fateful mission on Welthrox, and our stand off at SchwarzTeufel. We won in the end of that hellish mission, in a sense. Shortly after our failure, Freeza used powerful beams to destroy the planet from orbit.
First, Radditz wants to go off to get his 'baby brother' Kakarotto. That was the last thing that Bardock muttered as he died. Just going off to a low level planet, their power levels are only around 5.
Heh, that place turns out to be Earth. That's fine, I don't care. Then I find out Radditz was killed. At first, I thought it might have been androids, but after being able to retrieve some data on the subject, I found out it was instead Kakarotto, AKA Goku, and 'Piccilo'. And this happened on a 'harmless' planet. Damn, it pisses me off, I liked Radditz too.
Of course, Radditz gave off info on these Dragonballs. Very powerful things indeed.
Vegita and Nappa then go off to Earth, without orders, to retrieve these Dragonballs. Strangely enough, they were beaten by the low level warrior Kakarotto.
Vegita then heads for Nameck. Which is where we're all going to.
Strange, strange universe.
By now, Vegita has been declared as a traitor. Well, shit happens, I guess.
We will arrive on Nameck within fifteen minutes. Time seems to slow down to a crawl as we stand ready. #8 and I stand side by side as part of Freeza's elite guard.
Zarbon, Dodoria, #8, and I make up Freeza's elite guard. He also has several grunts with him too.
The station starts shaking as we enter the atmosphere.
Five minutes later…
"We're here…" Freeza states as he goes out onto Nameck. You're my boss and all, but no shit Sherlock.
"So… where are we going to first, Sir?" I ask. That's one thing I like about Freeza, you can speak whatever you wish so long as you keep a few formalities. And when I mean freedom of speech, I mean you could cuss Freeza out if you like. Of course, nothing guarantees he won't kill you for it, but you could still do it if you wished.
"The village about twenty miles from here." Freeza answers.
And it goes on much like this… Five hours later, we've gathered five Dragonballs. We're now in a village facing it's Elder.
I'm not really paying too much attention, since Freeza's doing the usual bullshit routine. Promise to leave in peace, get Dragonball, kill all inhabitants.
Then, some Nameckan warriors appear. They rank about 5000. Heh, how sad. Even sadder for our grunt soldiers though, who get their asses kicked.
You know, these Namecks look a lot like that Piccilo person.
"Dodoria, why don't you take care of this… inconvenience." Freeza orders Fatty. Yeah, like that will be hard. Fatty goes through his usual routine of acting all cocky.
Man, this is boring. If this is what it's like to be an elite guard, I'm quitting by next week and going back to a normal mercenary. Screw status.
Zarbon seems paranoid about some other people on this planet. I don't pick up anything though. But both Dodoria and Zarbon are paranoid about Vegita's power level. I don't see why, we can take him. So what if he killed Kewie? Big deal.
This Elder interests me though. He has balls. All the other Nameck Elders have caved in. Sure, they stood up for themselves, but they were all gullible and finally agreed to let Freeza have his way. But this one… he seems to have more guts than that. Either that or he's smarter.
The Elder notices me looking at him, he looks right back. "Why are you doing this?" he asks me. How should I answer? Tell him the truth, or give him a bunch of shit? Does it matter?
"It should be obvious, the Dragonballs of course. We want them for personal reasons." I respond. "I know you people will only use them for evil, you cannot have them!" the Elder argues back.
"Know what? I like you. Give up the Dragonballs, and I will guarantee the lives of all the people in this village." I tell him. Or at least, I'll try. We should probably keep some alive anyway, in case we can't get these Dragonballs to work or something.
The Elder stares at me critically. "You… you're not completely like the others." "Oh? How so?" "You aren't as corrupted. Not evil, but not good." the Elder tells me. Nice to know.
"I trust you, but I don't trust this Freeza." the Elder continues. Smart man.
"So… what will it be, old man?" Freeza asks. The Elder looks sickened by Dodoria's handiwork. "No. You cannot have it." "It's a shame then… what may happen to those children…" Freeza continues.
The Elder looks like he's in indecision. He backs up and whispers something to the children. Then he leaps into the air and destroys all the scouters! I was right, that man does have balls. Dodoria takes on the Nameck.
The Elder is smart too. We can't locate the Dragonballs anymore. I don't know why, but #8 and I can't pick up the Dragonballs. Must be something I screwed up with an upgrade.
Dodoria advances on the children after wasting the Elder, and kills one of them. He starts toying with the other. What a waste of lives. And a waste of an intelligent Nameck too.
Out of nowhere some kid rushes forward and kicks Dodoria through a wall. Who is this kid? Is this what Zarbon was worried about?
Some bald midget comes out too. Where the hell did they come from! Shouldn't we have picked them up? They must be able to hide their ki or something.
I start to move towards the intruders. "Wait…" Freeza orders me. I do exactly that. The two assailants grab the Nameck kid and fly off.
"Dodoria!" "Y-Yes, Freeza?" "Chase after them! NOW!" Freeza orders. I get it, a test of Dodoria's abilities. I wonder how many of those Freeza's thrown on me?
"I'm going back to the ship. Zarbon, #8, and #9, come with me." Freeza tells us. We do as ordered.
Chapter 35
Half an hour later…
Still no sign of Dodoria. I wonder what happened? This is a pretty boring mission. Thankfully, I got to leave, but #8 had to stay behind. Actually, Freeza 'wanted' me to leave. I dunno why.
So now I'm just lounging in our room.
The station starts shaking very violently.
"What the hell!" I ask out loud to no one in particular.
I race to the main area. Some walls are blasted down and people are running all over the place.
"IT'S VEGITA!" some guard screams. Really? About time something has happened.
I leave immediately to Freeza's main chamber. That's where the Dragonballs are.
"WHOOSH!" A Dragonball flies out of a hole in Freeza's window. Vegita then flies right out of the window. "VEGITA!" I yell after him. I charge up a ki blast and start to run after him. But something catches my eye. Someone seems to be laying off to my right side. For whatever reason, I turn to see who it is. Probably just some fool guard who got in Vegita's way.
I see who it really is, and freeze in my tracks. Female, black hair cut short, green eyes… "No…" I run over to #8 as fast as possible.
"I'm sorry #9." I hear behind me. Freeza. Whatever… nothing matters right now. I stare into #8's dead face.
"Vegita must have killed her. Do you want some time off?" Freeza asks. Why's he being so nice? Shut the fuck up and leave me in peace.
I grab #8's hand. It's cold… wait… it's cold? Now that I take a closer look, it seems she's been dead for hours. Vegita couldn't have killed her, or else she'd still be warm. Someone's pulling some shit. And I'm that person's fool.
"Yes… Sir… I'd like some time off." I reply. Freeza nods. I pick up #8 and leave.
For what seems hours, I just stare at #8's dead body. Just thinking…
Then I think about my paranoia eighteen years earlier… what if… it seems to be. It fits too perfectly. #8 and I are… were… one of if not 'the' strongest pair of warriors under Freeza's command. And Freeza knew it. So he killed her out of fear of power? But no, then he would of killed me, right?
Questions build in my mind. I have to know for certain. My computer… that's how. If it really was Freeza, it'd be documented in his personal files. I turn on the computer and start searching through everything related to us.
Two hours later…
These are the last two files…
File #3907
#8 and #9 are progressing very well. Almost too well. Their power keeps rising, yet, it doesn't show on any scouter. What if they decided to just leave? I cannot let warriors such as these go. I have to guarantee their loyalty, but how?
File #3908
I know how to gain the loyalty of #8 and #9 now. Actually, just one of them. When I have one with undying loyalty, why would I want two with questionable loyalty? I will kill off one of them, I think it will be #8 since she is weaker. But who to blame the death on?
He did… it makes so much sense. It's a brilliant plan. Kill off #8, Vegita comes in and raids the place. Then blame the death on Vegita, and he has my undying loyalty. Not only that, but I'd hunt Vegita down and kill him for sure…
That… that… ASSHOLE! My anger starts rising.
How dare he? He had our oaths, he had our word, he had nineteen years of faithful work. Now to kill off #8 just to be certain I'd work for him! THAT BASTARD! HE WILL PAY!
I slam my fist into the computer terminal, destroying it.
DAMNIT!
I feel like destroying this planet. I want to kill everyone, especially that manipulative little fuck Freeza.
No… I have to control myself. I'll be certain to die if I do that, and I'd never have revenge…
Side with Vegita… of course. If he gets the Dragonballs, Freeza will be screwed out of his wish. Not only that, but I can steal Vegita's wish and overcome Freeza. It… it might work. I grab a scouter.
I get on a new suit of armor and glance at #8's dead form one last time. A surge of anger and sadness goes through me. "Freeza will pay…" I mutter.
Chapter 36
"Where do you think you're going? No one can leave the ship!" Some guard yells out at me. Like I give a fuck. I blast his ass to oblivion. Nobody's stopping me.
I take off towards Vegita's location. "What do you want?" Vegita asks when I land without looking behind him. He seems to have been through hell, but his power level proves it. 46,000…
"I want to side with you." I say. Vegita glances at me. "And why might you want that?" Vegita inquires. "Because Freeza fucked me over. I want him to pay." Silence…
Vegita glares at me critically. "I don't need your help, baka." Vegita finally says. "So there you are…" I hear behind me, we both whirl around.
Zarbon. Vegita scowls even more so than usual. "Why are you here, #9? I heard you killed a guard and left." Zarbon directs to me. "I just want to hear from you, Zarbon, what really happened to #8? Don't bullshit me, I already know, I just want you to confirm it." Zarbon looks rather grim. "What do you 'know'?" "That it was Freeza." "You're good… and right. It was Freeza. But casualties are expected, #9. Are you striking a deal with Vegita? Don't be so foolish, you'll never win. Come back to us, forget what happened, and Freeza will overlook your treachery." offers Zarbon.
"HAHAHA!" I laugh hysterically "Do you take me for a fool? And do you also think I would forget #8 so easily? A person I've spent my life with, a person I loved, my comrade. You are a fool if you think that, Zarbon." Zarbon smiles without humor. "Freeza backstabbed me!" I continue "I will never forgive that! He had our oaths, he had nineteen years of service, he had nothing to fear! Why did he do that? WHY! I will have my revenge…" "You'll have to get through me first." Zarbon interrupts. "AND NO ONE WILL STOP ME!" I scream. My power rises to 51,000 and I rush at Zarbon.
I yank out my sword and slice into Zarbon's chest. He staggers. But that's not enough… if he will be in my way, he will die. I swing at him again, and cut off the left arm he tried to block with. "ARGH!" Zarbon screams, but I'm not finished. Zarbon dodges as I stab at him, but I hit his right shoulder. "Fine… have it your way…" Zarbon mutters as he transforms.
Zarbon's injuries don't heal, though. Now he's at 47,000, which is over what Vegita can take. "DIE!" I scream as I leap forward again, my sword flies at him, but hits thin air. A fist swings past me as I leap over Zarbon and slash his back open. "As I said, no one, will stop me. Including you, my former comrade…" I say sadly. "You may beat me, but you will never beat Freeza…" Zarbon replies, I stab him in the gut. "I don't care about my chances, Freeza WILL die by my hand." I stab him in the chest. Zarbon is now gurgling blood. "Heh… you… will never… know… not… him…" Zarbon spits at me before he falls over, dead. Whatever.
My power doesn't go down, I'm too wired.
But… I just killed my friend. But that is no matter, he was in my way of revenge, and had known of what had happened. He would have done the same thing.
I look back at Vegita, who is looking at me. "Reconsidering my offer?" I ask. "Fine. You may accompany me." Vegita responds tersely. I grin. "Good, how many of the Dragonballs do you have?" I ask Vegita. "Five from Freeza's ship, and one I got myself and hid." he informs me. "I'll retrieve the Dragonball I hid while you get the last Dragonball." Vegita orders. "Good enough then." I respond. Vegita takes off, as if he knows where to go without as scouter. Ah well, I've heard of being able to 'sense' ki. Like it matters to me.
Chapter 37
I quickly locate the final Dragonball and take off in search of it. Getting there was of little mention.
"W-Who are you?" some blue haired girl asks me. "It doesn't matter, just hand over the Dragonball." I respond. "YOU! You were with Freeza!" I hear. That bald midget from earlier points at me. "Correct, now hand over the Dragonball or die." I tell them. I'm not exactly in the mood for formalities. Besides, the midget is only at about 20,000.
"Never. You don't even have any ki." the bald guy responds and throws a blast at me, which I didn't expect. I block it, but not before it destroys my scouter. Damn. "Never go by appearance." I say. The bald man gulps. "H-Here…" he hands over the Dragonball.
"Thank you." I leave immediately. Not too long after, I meet up with Vegita. A very angry and bloodshot eyed Vegita. He looked like he was going to burst several veins.
"Uh… Vegita?" "THAT BOY WILL PAY!" Vegita screams. Okay… I take it things didn't go well. "Where's your Dragonball?" "That boy took it!" "Is he in purple clothing?" "Yes." Vegita responds. He was the one who attacked Fatty. I locate the boy quickly and we both take off. No mere boy will ruin my revenge!
We end up in a high speed chase after this boy. Finally, the bald midget appears once again, attempting to stop us. Vegita bats him away and we move on to the Namck building on top of a pillar of stone.
"What do you want?" a tall Nameck asks us. "Out of my way!" Vegita orders. "AAAHHH!" someone yells from within the building. Then the boy in purple steps out. He ranks at about 26,000. Still nothing.
"Ha! We can take you now, Vegita!" the midget speaks. "Oh really?" I speak up. The midget looks surprised. "You again!" "Now, hand it over!" I demand. "NO! We didn't come all this way to lose our only wish!" Krillin says. "Only wish? There are three wishes you know." the tall Nameck tells us. "HUH!" we all turn to the Nameck. "That's right. You get three wishes out of the Dragonballs." Perfect.
"Wait… what's that?" Vegita looks up into the sky. "It's… daddy! Isn't it?" the boy exclaims, seeming a bit unsure. "I don't know who this daddy is, but it's powerful." I mutter. Wait… that's not one person… that's five! I get readings of 120,000, 75,000, 30,000, 30,000, and 15,000. No… he didn't…
"It's not Kakarott! It's the Ginyu Force!" Vegita exclaims. So it is… so it is. "The who?" Midget explains. "You mean it's not daddy, Krillin?" the boy asks. Apparently, Midget is Krillin. "No Gohan, they're too evil to be Goku." Krillin responds.
"Quickly! Give me the Dragonballs now!" Vegita orders. "Why should we?" Krillin asks. "Because we're all screwed if you don't!" I argue. "The only way we will beat the Ginyu Force is if we work together and also use these Dragonballs to increase power." I continue. "But what about Gohan?" Krillin points at the boy. "He may have power, but he lacks the skill!" Vegita aruges. "We have no time!" I exclaim "We need to get going, NOW!" "… Alright." Krillin reluctantly agrees.
We all rush to get the last Dragonball. The blue haired girl has it. "Bulma! Give me the Dragonball!" Krillin yells at her. "THERE YOU ARE! After leaving me here all alo-… WHA!" she nearly falls over as she sees Vegita and I. "No time to explain." Krillin says as he grabs the Dragonball. "Let's go." we all take off to Vegita's stash.
As soon as we get there, Vegita and I walk towards the last five Dragonballs, but I notice Krillin and Gohan don't move. We turn around. "What's taking you?" Vegita asks harshly. "We don't trust you Vegita." Gohan says. "There's no time for this!" Vegita exclaims. "Shit…" I mutter as I cover my face with my hand.
"WHOOSH!" Huh! The Ginyu Force lands behind us and the remaining Dragonballs.
"There you are, Vegita and #9. You've been causing Freeza some trouble." Captain Ginyu says. "Fuck Freeza." I spit at him. Vegita grabs my Dragonball, winds up, and flings it as far as he can into the ocean. But Burter catches it. Damn he's fast, luckily he seems to be more speed than power, but it may be hard to hit him. "KRILLIN! DESTROY IT!" Vegita screams. Krillin looks undecided, but then brings his fist down upon the Dragonball. All of a sudden, it disappears and Guldo is holding the sphere. "So… the rumors are true." Vegita murmurs. Guldo grins. Ah… the rumors of stopping time.
"I'll take care of Vegita while you guys deal with the rest." Ginyu orders. What, am I not good enough? "Aww…" the rest of the team complains. "Oh fine, I'll take the Dragonballs back to Freeza while you guys do that rock scissors paper thing." "YAY!" the team exclaims.
Ginyu leaves. "Rock, paper, scissors! Rock, paper, scissors! Rock…" the team chants. What… the… fuck?
"We're gonna be killed by a bunch of idiots…" Gohan mutters. That we will be, kid. "I WIN!" Recoom exclaims. "I get Vegita and #9!" "Aw… damn." the rest of the team mutters, except for Guldo. "I get you little twerps!" Guldo says while pointing at Krillin and Gohan. I grin, time freeze or not, he doesn't stand a chance. But somehow, Krillin and Gohan are keeping their powers low, and Vegita does the same. Curious.
Then Guldo fights Krillin and Gohan. It's a pitiful fight, really. Gohan and Krillin tear it up, double teaming Guldo and attacking from both sides. Only Guldo's time freeze saves him. Heh, that fool, trying to hide behind that rock. Gohan and Krillin sense him and attack. Seems they can sense power too.
All of a sudden, the tables turn as Guldo uses his ESP to freeze Gohan and Krillin in mid air. "Heh, heh, heh." Guldo uses his powers to pull out a tree from the ground and sharpen it into a spike. "HEY! Guldo! Hurry up, will ya!" Recoom yells. "Yeah, yeah." Guldo replies.
Damn, even though I wouldn't want to bring the entire team upon us, it'd hurt a lot more to lose two fighters. Everyone counts in this battle. I lift up my hand and start charging for a beam, but Vegita beats me to it by decapitating Guldo.
Blood sprays all over Vegita's glove and arm as Guldo's head drops to the ground. Guldo's head talks to Vegita "You… you play dirty, Vegita. This is… a game between me and them…" "That's what you say! This is war, I don't care!" Vegita responds.
"I fight Vegita!" I hear Recoom yell out. I hadn't been paying much attention to the mindless dialogue between the other team members. "Hell starts now…" Vegita says.
Chapter 38
"The other two are ours!" Jaice yells to Recoom. "Who…" Krillin starts "… do they take us for?" Vegita finishes. Then Recoom does a silly set of stances.
Vegita, who could care less about looking fancy, just starts charging up to full power. A wind storm starts, blowing away Krillin and Gohan. It doesn't bother me though, I'm used to these levels of power. Vegita then dashes forward and socks Recoom in the face making him fly off. But Vegita isn't finished. He then rockets past Recoom, hits him with an overhead smash, lands feet first into Recoom's gut, grabs Recooms leg and flings him into hill, and then finishes with a powerful ki beam.
"GET DOWN!" Krillin screams. Why? The results are spectacular. But how'd he do it? Vegita's only at 46,000 while Recoom is at 75,000!
"Incredible! He won in a second!" Gohan exclaims. "Vegita, what power…" Krillin mutters.
No… there's something wrong… He's not dead! Vegita notices too. "I feel him! Alive… he's alive!" Gohan says downcast. Krillin stares in disbelief "No… impossible…" but it's true.
"Hello!" Recoom greets us. While his armor has been disintegrated, he's seemingly taken no actual damage from that barrage of attacks.
"RECOOM… KICK!" Recoom dashes forward and kicks Vegita in the face. Vegita flies back but bounces off of a rock. He then throws in a barrage of kicks and punches, but it's all blocked. "Good! Very good! You're better than I thought, my little Vegita!" Recoom elbows Vegita in the neck making him fly to the ground. Vegita hits hard and Recoom tries to punch Vegita, but he leaps out of the way.
Then an aerial chase commences. Recoom misses a few times, and Vegita throws a beam at him. But it misses, Recoom appears in front of Vegita, and slams him into the nearby ocean.
Still, Vegita is not beaten and he flies out of the water, hitting Recoom right in the gut. Recoom seems hurt for a second, but then smiles and grabs Vegita. Damn. Recoom pile drives Vegita into the ground and pulls him out. "Heh heh. You ok? Dead already?" Recoom questions. Not quite, Vegita then ki blasts Recoom right in the face making him fly back and drop Vegita. Vegita lands with a loud thump.
"Still…" Gohan mutters. "Vegita won't give up easy. He'll play this to the end." I respond. "I'm next." I tell them.
Recoom starts to shoot a beam out of his mouth towards Vegita, but I appear in front of him and uppercut him right in the jaw, closing his mouth.
"Very good! You made me close my mouth. My teeth… you'll pay for that." Recoom says. Man, I am dead.
Recoom punches me in the face and I fly backwards. A kick passes just past my face and I blast Recoom in the gut. But it has no effect. I get kicked in the head and slide across the ground. Recoom swings at me, but I jump up as fast as I hit and kick him in the face. I get backhanded right in the chest and I fly into a small hill.
My ki forces the hill to explode and I draw my sword. "Ooh! He wants to play with toys!" Recoom exclaims. This is more than a fucking toy moron…
I charge up and leap at the damn monster. Even though my blade is super charged with my power, Recoom blocks all of my swings and is unaffected. He then grabs my arm and slams me to the ground. My eye beams slam into his throat, choking him for a short second.
Bouncing to my feet, I charge up a beam into my left hand, place it between his eyes, and fire. Recoom's head arches back and he skids on the ground. Then he just gets up as if it were nothing. I don't understand how he didn't get whiplash out of that… But I was expecting that and have been charging up my Bloody Eraser. "Recoom… PUNCH!" Recoom flies right at me and I fire my beam.
He is engulfed immediately and I pour more power into the attack. I leap into the air, redirecting the beam to the ground. Recoom slams into the dirt, pushed by the beam.
"AAHHHHHHHH!" I scream as I pour yet more power into the beam. Finally, I have to stop or risk shutting down like I did at Welthrox.
Recoom gets up, looking like an extra crispy chicken. "Very good! But now I have to stop our fun! Good night!" Recoom says rather cheerfully. Why do morons like this get all the power?
Before I can do anything, Recoom appears before me and punches me in the gut. I can almost feel his knuckles touching my spine. He then grabs my leg and uses it to slam me into the ground, twisting it horribly.
There's a good side and a bad side to my strong endoskeleton. The good side is that it is almost impossible to damage it. The bad side is that if any limb gets twisted, like my leg, then instead of the skeleton giving, my muscles just get ripped to shreds.
I glare at Recoom. He swings again and I try to dodge, but I'm too slow. I take the hit right in the lower chest and his fist goes deep. Even though I feel no pain, I still can be affected by major injuries. And this shows itself as my vision fades in and out. I take one more hit to the face before the darkness envelops me.
Chapter 39
I wake up later in a pathetic cracked shell of armor, but still remain in various stages of consciousness. Which makes it hard to follow the fight. After I fell, Krillin and Gohan jumped in on the action. Krillin was taken down instantly, and from what I gather, Recoom is toying with Gohan.
Gohan's in pretty bad condition. From what I can make out, he's pretty bloody, broken arm, broken ribs, and his humerus is broken, putting him into shock.
All of a sudden, the clouds around my mind deteriorate just enough for me to notice someone with a very high potential ki is heading this way.
Then… an orange clothed and tailless Bardock lands? I didn't know androids could become delirious…
"Kakarotto…" Vegita mutters. Isn't Kakarotto Bardock's son?
Kakarotto grabs Gohan before he was finished by Recoom. I'm really having trouble following this…
He then tosses feeds two beans to Gohan and Krillin. They talk, and Kakarotto tosses a bean to Vegita and I each.
I hold up the bean weakly and stare at it skeptically. Kakarotto nods at me, and I pop it in my mouth. Nothing to lose at this point.
All of a sudden, I'm restored! I start working properly again. My vision is back and my leg is fixed as well as all internal damage. I don't know what the hell I just ate, but it's some kick ass shit!
"DADDY!" Gohan yells. Kakarotto's a father? With who? "Goku!" Krillin yells. So this man is 'Goku' as well? Things keep getting stranger. But no time for that.
But our power levels have increased by several points. Vegita is at 60,000 and I'm at 63,000! I hadn't even realized I was working that hard! Gohan is at 52,000 while Krillin is at 30,000. While this Kakarotto has a max of about 180,000!
So amazed I am at this new development, I don't hear some of the dialogue between Kakarotto and the others. But I listen in shortly after I regain my senses.
Vegita seems to be really surprised while Recoom and Kakarotto talk. "Stop your nonsense! You're going to stop being such a smart ass soon!" Reccom states. Kakarotto grins. "Fine! Are you ready? RECOOM! MACH! ATTACK!" and with that, Recoom leaps at Kakarotto. But Kakarotto just disappears and reappears right behind Burter and Jaice! Kakarotto tells them to leave. There's some more meaningless talking.
"Fine! I'll show you my specialty. I have to warn you that it's useless to run away." Recoom states. "I'm going to destroy everything for kilometers around! I'm going to send all four of you to hell at the same time! RECOOM! ULTRA! COMBAT!" Recoom starts. But Kakarott leaps forward and elbows him in the gut. Recoom topples over.
Everyone is in awe. Can't they read his power? Or can they not get around the fact he's masking it.
Burter and Jaice are undaunted. "Goku seems really sure of himself." Krillin states. "Of course." I respond. Gohan and Krillin both look at me. "Can't you read his power?" I ask. "No… he's hiding his full power." "Heh, well, just so you know, he's WAY more powerful than the rest of these Ginyu freaks." I tell them. "H-He is?" Gohan asks. "Yeah. But he's only giving out a reading of about 5000, which is pretty weak. In reality, he's about 180,000. Way above and beyond any of the Ginyu Force members. And way beyond any of us. We're way out of his league." I state. "Woah…" Krillin mutters in awe.
I almost break out laughing as Burter and Jeice unsuccessfully try to hurt Kakarotto, but instead Kakarotto toys with them a while. Then he beats Burter with ease.
Yet… I've noticed, he hasn't actually killed any of them. Recoom and Burter, while still injured, are still alive as well. Foolish, they could recover and attack us later.
Vegita leaps in the air and crushes Burter's skull while I walk over and ki blast Recoom in the face, finishing them both. "Vegita? What are you-" "Your naivete makes me want to vomit." Vegita interjects. "Why did you let the other leave? With that power you could have easily taken him out. You'll never be a Super Saiyajin." Vegita states. Super Saiyajin? Isn't that some Saiyajin tale? About a Saiyajin who every 1000 years gains an ultimate power?
"Vegita's right. You should have killed them all." I say as I walk to Kakarotto. He stares at me. "They could have recovered and attacked us later. Also Jeice will undoubtedly inform Captain Ginyu. Your compassion only endangers." I state.
"Freeza's probably used the Dragonballs for immortality. You have a chance, just so long as you stay away from him." Vegita tells us all.
"No, I don't think he got his wish." Krillin states. Vegita, Kakarotto, and I stare at him. "How do you know?" I ask.
"If the Dragonballs here work like ours…" Krillin explains "the sky would go black when Shenlon appears. So…" "You mean someone appears when you use them?" Vegita interjects.
"AH! I know! They don't know the spell! He probably thinks it's enough to just have the Dragonballs! We still have a chance!" Kakarotto exclaims. "Spell? There is one?" Vegita says. We're both dumbfounded.
"I hope we can get those Dragonballs." Krillin states. "Vegita? You should know." Kakarotto says. "You don't want to fight Freeza?" "We want to resurrect our friends that you killed first." Kakarotto answers.
"Feh. Resurrections will do no good if they're killed again." I tell them all. "Let me have my wish instead!" Vegita orders. "Are you kidding? You'll be just like Freeza!" Krillin argues.
"Eh?" I just noticed two powers far off. "Ginyu and Jeice." I state. "Huh?" Kakarott asks. "The rest of the Ginyu Force. They're coming this way." I clarify. "Won't be so easy this time." Vegita states. "Where's Freeza?" I ask as I search. "I feel a great power over there. Must be him." Kakarott points Northward. "CRAP! That's Saichoro's place!" Krillin exclaims. "Who?" I ask. "The creator of the Dragonballs! If he dies, the Dragonballs won't work!" Gohan explains.
Ginyu and Jaice land in front of us. "Krillin, Gohan! Go to Saichoro and get him out of there!" I order. "Why should we listen to you?" Krillin counters. "Because if he dies, we can't do a damn thing! NOW GO!" I yell. Kakarotto nods at them and they leave.
"Vegita and you." Kakarotto says, nodding at me. "Take the other one. You should be a lot stronger Vegita." Vegita grins. "You found out my secret." I grin lightly too. "Let's go." Kakarotto says. "Heh." Vegita glances at Kakarotto and flies off. "SO LONG KAKAROTTO!" "VEGITA!" Kakarotto screams. "Kakarotto, I can see your true power. You need no help. Vegita and I have more pressing matters." I explain and take off as well.
Chapter 40
Vegita and I land in front of Freeza's space station. "Good, Freeza's out." Vegita states. "Then let's use this to our advantage." I respond.
We search the ship but can't find the Dragonballs. "Maybe they're hidden?" I say. "Perhaps." Vegita responds as he goes towards the armory.
"Feh! Only old models my size!" Vegita states. "HA! I've got even older! Remember Bardock's armor?" I ask as I pull out a black plated suit of armor. "It'll do though." I say as I throw on the torso piece.
"Huh?" Vegita looks out the window. Krillin and Gohan have landed outside with some small Nameckan kid. They talk and start digging into the ground. Vegita and I sneak out and watch.
"Here they are! All seven!" Krillin exclaims. "COME FORTH SHENLON! GRANT US OUR WISH!" Krillin yells out. Then… nothing happens? "He's not coming? Why?" Krillin is bewildered. Ugh… Huh? Two kis?
"Someone's coming! It's probably Ginyu and Jaice!" Krillin states. "Daddy's dead?" Gohan asks innocently. No way Ginyu could have won… unless. "They're evil!" Krillin states. They all hide. Ginyu did… Kakarotto and Jaice land. Or is it Ginyu and Jaice?
"GOKU! Haha! You scared me! I thought it was Ginyu!" Krillin yells out. Fool. "I didn't know you killed him and convinced Jaice!" "You're the one who found the Dragonballs? How?" "With the Dragon Radar of course!" Krillin responds. The Nameckan decides to keep hiding.
"So you got your wish?" Ginyu asks. "No. The spell's probably different." Krillin tells him. "So… it didn't work…" "You're weird. You're not acting like yourself and you're wearing a scouter." "Wanna know why?" Ginyu asks. "KRILLIN! THAT'S NOT MY DAD!" Gohan screams. He has a gift for the obvious.
Ginyu hits Krillin with a right hook. "There's another one. He must have hidden his ki." Jaice states. "Goku?" "We exchanged bodies." Ginyu explains. "I AM CAPTAIN GINYU!" Ginyu yells out.
"I'm gonna try out my new body. With a power of 180,000!" Shit… "Captain Ginyu! He's here!" Jaice jerks a thumb toward's Ginyu's floating body. Must by Kakarotto. "How did you get here?" Ginyu asks. "That's not me! We exchanged bodies!" Kakarotto yells at Krillin and Gohan. "Really?" "That's my daddy?" they're both amazed.
"Ha! You're all finished!" Ginyu states. "NO! You aren't used to my body yet! You can't do it!" Kakarotto yells back. "Just watch…" and Ginyu powers up.
And keeps going… to 23,000? There's something wrong. Kakarotto is right, he can't achieve full power. Krillin smacks Ginyu in the back of his skull. "We can win!" Krillin exclaims. "What are you doing? Fight Jaice!" Ginyu orders. "Hey, I'm your man…" Vegita appears right behind Jaice. They fight and I leap from my hiding spot.
"We have to pound Ginyu! Before he can figure out how to work his new body!" I yell at them all. "But wh-?" Gohan starts. "His that way for good! There's nothing we can do!" I argue. Then I leap forward and kick Ginyu in the head. "Ugh!" Ginyu flies back. I grab his arm and slam him into the ground. Then I stomp on his face and give him a ki blast in the stomach. I toy with him a while, then finally knock him to the ground. My power level increases just a little to 53,000. Only from the constant exercise I got from playing with him.
I kneel down, putting my right knee into his back, grab his throat with a headlock, and pull back. "Switch now, or you die…" I tell him. "Never…" I pull back harder. "I say switch damn you…" he starts struggling.
"OUT OF THE WAY!" I hear way above me. Vegita's returned from his fight with Jaice. He's now at 55,000. I leap back and Vegita rockets downward. All of a sudden, Ginyu smiles.
Shit… "VEGITA!" Kakarotto screams and leaps towards Ginyu. "CHANGE!" Ginyu yells out at the top of his lungs. A beam flies out of his mouth. Kakarotto hits the beam, and then drops to the ground.
"U-ugh…" Ginyu's body squirms. "NO!" It exclaims. "YAHOO!" Kakarotto's body leaps up. I'd say they're back to normal.
"Now you die Ginyu." I say to him as I pull out my sword and leap forward. While much stronger than me, he's severly weakened. We're almost equally matched. Almost…
He blocks my sword slash but gets kicked in his wound. "Ooof!" I slash him in his right arm right down his biceps. He punches me in the face with his other arm but I knee him in the gut. Ginyu attempts to kick me in the head, but I grab his leg and use it to slam him into the ground. While rising, he shoots a beam at me which I bat away. I then stab him in the stomach, disemboweling him… he glares at me.
"CHANGE!" NO! Krillin kicks a frog, which gets in the way of the beam. Now he's in the body of a frog and can't talk. Talk about a bad way to go out in battle…
Kakarotto is still out of it too. We drag him into a regeneration tank and then go back outside. We also get Krillin and Gohan some armor. Krillin and Gohan use the Nameck to make a wish. I couldn't understand any of what the huge dragon and the kid were saying.
"What's that?" Krillin exclaims. Oh no… I just picked up Freeza coming this way. And we only got one wish. Whatever it was.
"Get ready. Hell has just begun…" I tell them all. Freeza lands in front of us. "If we work together, we can beat him!" Vegita says. "Oh! I must have misheard!" Freeza exclaims.
"Actually, Vegita, we stand no chance." I say. He looks at me. "He's actually much, MUCH more powerful than this. But if we work together, maybe we can kill him before he powers up." Krillin and Gohan look unsure. "YOU'VE PISSED ME OFF!" Freeza screams and he leaps at Vegita. He blocks the attack, and grabs Freeza's arms when he punches. I leap in and kick Freeza right in the back of the head and pull out my sword. Freeza backhands me into a hill. I leap out and stab Freeza in the shoulder, but the blade never penetrates the skin. Vegita is still holding on to Freeza. I charge up my ki and shoot a beam through my sword blade. Freeza buckles, and then leaps up into the air, escaping Vegita. Yet, Freeza's only using a fraction of his power. We have to work quickly.
"Why did you defect?" Freeza asks me. "You killed #8." "Oh, that's all. HA! You weakling, controlled by your emotions so easily!" Freeza mocks me. "DAMN YOU FREEZA!" I scream and my power increases to 62,000. I'm VERY pissed. Freeza dodges as I swing at him. As he moves, I twist my body and kick at his head. Freeza just grabs my by my ankle and slams me to the ground. "DIE!" I leap at him again. This continues, but I am fueled by my rage. I shoot a beam, he bats it away. I punch, he blocks. Yet, I fight on, and my power increases dramastically. 65,000, 67,000, 70,000, 75,000… all the way to 120,000. Vegita joins in too, and he gets to 115,000. "SHI-NE!" I scream. "Show us your true power Freeza!" Vegita yells out.
"Are you that eager to die? Very well then!" Freeza tells us.
Chapter 41
Vegita, you fool. Freeza has transformed to a powerful, large, monster. He no longer looks like the weakling he once was. But he's only at 300,000. Still a fraction of his power. But enough to beat us!
"My power has gone to at least over 1,000,000!" Freeza states. "He's bluffing on that! But he's still strong!" I tell the others. "Very good #9!" Freeza makes the ground below us explode and we all go flying back.
"Which one of you should I send to hell first? …I've decided!" Freeza then leaps forward and impales Krillin on one of his horns.
"Damn he's fast!" I exclaim. "KRILLIN!" Gohan screams.
Freeza casually flings Krillin off of his horn.
"Were you going to help him?" Freeza directs to Gohan "Pointless. He'll die soon." "Get out of my way!" "Eh?" "GET OUT OF MY WAY!" Gohan screams as he kicks Freeza in the head. He then uppercuts Freeza and punches him repeatedly in the gut. Gohan's energy spikes up to 200,000! "WHAT THE!" I exclaim. Gohan kicks Freeza away and then pounds him into the ground with several beams. Gohan then levels out at 60,000. SHIT! What the hell is up with that kid!
After the smoke clears, Freeza comes back towards us. "That hurt… slightly. But all you've gained is my anger!" "Damn! We've underestimated him!" Vegita says.
Freeza floats up towards Gohan. "IDIOT! GET AWAY!" Vegita screams. Freeza smacks Gohan on the side of his head, slamming him down to the ground. "Oh no… the fun hasn't started yet." Freeza says.
Vegita blasts Freeza with a beam, but it has no effect. "DAMN THIS ALL TO HELL!" I scream and charge up my Bloody Eraser. "Just wait #9, you'll have your turn." Freeza tells me. "YOU CAN TAKE THAT TURN AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS!" I yell and fire my Bloody Eraser at full power.
At first Freeza seems uninterested. But as the beam closes in, Freeza notices the power in it. It hits him head on. "AAHHHHHHH!" I scream out. But Freeza still stands, blocking the beam. With a strong shove, the beam flies off to the side. But that's why I didn't throw ALL I had into it. I dash at Freeza, charge up my sword, and shoot a beam right into Freeza's face.
"Was that supposed to-" Freeza is cut off as I hit him in the face with the handle of my sword. Freeza turns his head back at me. "Very good, you keep getting better and better #9. Why didn't you do this well when we sparred?" Freeza asks as he punches me in the face and flings me to the ground.
"Son of a bitch…" I mutter. Gohan gets back up and tries to hit Freeza, but not one attack lands. Freeza kneeks Gohan in the stomach and drops him to the ground. Gohan recovers and flies away, but Freeza intercepts and hits him back on the ground again.
"This is enough. Die." Freeza says plainly. Out of nowhere, a disc shaped beam cuts Freeza's tail off. "What!" Freaza screams out. Krillin stands on a small hill, completely healed and at 50,000. Huh? "What? You're still alive?" "KEINZAN!" Krillin shouts and he fires a bunch of those discs at Freeza. They then shoot into the air.
"TAIYOU KEN!" and a bright light shoots out from Krillin and blinds Freeza.
I notice out of the corner of my eye, the small Nameck HEALING Gohan. "ATTACK NOW!" Krillin screams. Very sound idea. I charge up and shoot a crescent beam at Freeza, which hits and injures him only slightly.
Gohan is healed and we all fly up into the air. Freeza then recovers and seems confused. Must be that Gohan is healed. Or his new power of 100,000.
"Lucks started to turn our way!" Vegita exclaims. "Impossible! He was nearly dead too!" Freeza is in disbelief. "What the hell is that?" I yell out as I notice another power streaking our way. A tall Nameck wearing purple clothing, a white cape, and a white turban appears. "PICCILO!" Gohan yells out happily. "Sorry to keep you waiting." Piccilo says. Shit he's powerful. 350,000.
Chapter 42
"Is that Freeza?" Piccilo asks. "Yeah." Krillin replies. "I wondered what you wished for, but you only brought back that piece of trash!" Vegita says angerly. "You're after Freeza." Piccilo retorts. "So there was a Nameck left! But this one's different…" Freeza muses. Indeed he is. This Piccilo doesn't seem as peaceful as the other Namecks. Actually, he seems just the opposite of the other Namecks.
"I'll take care of this trash." Piccilo says, looking at Freeza. Damn… "Get out of here Dende!" Piccilo says to the smaller Nameck. He runs off.
Piccilo then leaps at Freeza and socks him right in the jaw. Freeza gets knocked backwards, but Piccilo follows and tries to smack him down into the ground. We have a chance… Freeza leaps out of the way and kicks Piccilo right in the head.Piccilo bounces back but is hit by Freeza's tail, but receives a head butt in the stomach in return. Freeza fires a beam but it's deflected by Piccilo. Piccilo fires his own beam which Freeza hastily blocks. "D-damn you." Freeza stutters.
Freeza floats over to Piccilo. "Here's to you." Freeza then elbows Piccilo in the face and slams him into the ground. Piccilo jumps from the ground, dodging Freeza's attack, and Freeza follows. Piccilo can't dodge the next attack and lands on the ground.
Casually, Piccilo gets up and tosses off his cape and turban, making his power rise to full. "I've been holding back too." Freeza looks surprised. All of a sudden, he starts laughing hysterically. Oh shit…
"You think this is my true power? Watch, as I transform again!" Freeza states. "ATTACK NOW!" I scream. But he doesn't listen. And I'm too far away to do anything.
Freeza grows some spikes and his forehead enlarges. "Sorry for the wait. Now we can begin round two!" Freeza says. He's now at 600,000. Freeza then dashes at Piccilo, but he flies out of the way. Freeza follows. "If strength is your specialty, speed is mine! You'll never catch me!" Piccilo yells out. But alas, Freeza is actually way ahead of Piccilo. "W-what?" Freeza points at Piccilo's leg, and then a hole appears in it! An invisible beam! But those are weak! Freeza then starts riddling Piccilo with holes.
Gohan shoots after Freeza, and Krillin starts to do the same. But Vegita holds Krillin back. "Hit me so that I'm almost dead!" Vegita orders. "Wha?" Krillin responds. What's he planning? Then it clicks together. When a Saiyajin comes back from near death, their power increases.
"DIE!" Gohan screams as his power increases again. I don't even bother with the number. "Do it Krillin." I say. "Ok… if you insist." Krillin charges up a beam.
While Vegita does that, I'm going to try my hand at Freeza. While he may be much stronger, I get stronger the longer I fight.
"HA!" I kick Freeza in the head. He doesn't even bother blocking my attacks. "Huh?" I punch him in the face. "You…" I knee him in the gut. "This is amusing…" I shoot out a flurry of punches and kicks to his torso. "But sad…" I pull out my sword and cut across his chest, barely even scratching it "Will you ever get it?" I kick him in the face. My power rises. 150,000. I leap back at Freeza and attack again.
Punch to the head. 150,500.
Kick in the gut. 152,000.
Slash his arm. 152,750.
Block an attack. 160,000.
And I continue my suicide attack. A punch, stab, kick. Freeza laughs at my attempts, but my power rises still. "You'll never avenge #8. You're a weak fool. And so was she…" this angers me and my power rockets to 300,000. "DIE!" I stab him with my full strength. This time, I do some damage. Blood drips from the small wound in his right shoulder. "Huh?" I swing again, but he dodges. I kick him in the face as he dodges. "What's going on? Your hits keep getting stronger and stronger." Freeza grabs my ankle and slams me into the ground.
I get up immediately and shoot several beams into his face. 350,000… "ENOUGH!" Freeza punches me in the face and then I get hit with a beam, ultimately slamming me into a hill near Vegita.
"Baka." Vegita mutters. Vegita is now at 230,000. Dende is also pulling himself out of a hill. I jump right back up. "Huh?" Krillin seems astonished. "How can you keep fighting like that?" he asks me. "Easy, I don't feel pain." Freeza lands in front of us. "Impressive."
"But I'll show you my new power. It is beyond your understanding. Prepare!" Freeza warns as he powers up.
Moments later, we see Freeza in his final form. He's so damned… funny? I almost start laughing my ass off as I look upon Freeza. About Vegita's height, smaller muscles, smoothed out skin, and mostly white except a few splotches of purple on his lower legs, forearms, shoulders, gut, and head. The only thing that keeps me from laughing is his power.
For the first time ever, I get an accurate reading on his true power. 1,200,000. We're dead. Freeza points is finger at us, and shoots a beam. It hits and kills Dende. "Now no one can heal you." Freeza states. He then disappears and reappears right in front of us.
"Damn you…" I mutter. Gohan attacks him, but misses. Same for Krillin and Piccilo. They keep attacking and then fly back. Freeza shoot two finger beams at Gohan.
"LOOK OUT FOOL!" Vegita yells as he hits Gohan, forcing him to fall down under the beams.
"Heh… you will die Freeza." Vegita says plainly. "You're not afraid. Are you insane?" Freeza asks. "I am the Super Saiyajin. I am your worst nightmare. And now, you die…" Freeza starts laughing. "KAKAROTTO WILL NOT BE THE NEXT ONE!" Vegita lunges at Freeza. Freeza dodges. "I can see you!" Vegita attacks, but Freeza disappears again.
"Hahaha! If I get any more serious, you just might get motion sickness. Super Saiyajin indeed!" Freeza mocks. "Shit…" Vegita mutters.
Chapter 43
"You cannot win." "NO! I AM THE SUPER SAIYAJIN!" Vegita flings his most powerful beam at Freeza. Freeza knocks it away with his foot. Vegita looks on with awe as Freeza head butts him. Freeza knocks Vegita around like a volleyball.
"The war is lost…" I mutter. I watch with sadness as Freeza slams Vegita into the ground in front of us and chokes him to death with his tail. Then he discards Vegita's dead body.
"No…" I mutter. "This cannot be…" "Oh? And what will you do?" "DIE!" I jump at Freeza in one, final suicide attack. If we have lost, and I cannot have my revenge, I will die facing Freeza to the end. In my ultimate anger of loss, my power rockets to 530,000. But it's not nearly enough.
Punches, kicks, beams, they're all worthless against him. I can do nothing to him. Even though my power keeps rising, which is currently at 630,000, I can still do nothing. Freeza knocks me around a bit and slams me into the ground. He places his foot on my chest and points his palm at my face.
"You were a great warrior, #9. It's a shame it had to end like this." Freeza tells me. I spit on him. "Very well…" Freeza blasts me and walks off.
Darkness slowly engulfs me. But this isn't the darkness of being knocked out, nor the darkness of sleep. I'm dying. The war really is lost. It doesn't matter if Kakarotto finally recovers and fights, no one is strong enough. Freeza is the devil among the living, and no one can survive his wrath.
Will I go to heaven or hell? Most likely hell, for the evil deeds of extermination I have done. But I am coming to meet you, #8… I will be with you again at last. No one can take that much from me. I grin as the world fades around me.
Chapter 44
There is nothing but darkness. "#9…" a voice calls to me. A familiar voice. "#8!" I call out. "Yes. It is me #9…" she appears before me. "I'm sorry, I lost." "That's okay. You fought to your fullest, and that is what matters to me." she responds.
She looks sad suddenly. "Why so sad? We're together again." "Not for long…" "What?" "You were not meant to be here, #9." she explains. "That is why we're here, if you were truly meant to die, we would not be in this darkness." "This is confusing. I watched as Freeza blew my head off." I can't comprehend this…
"You will be brought back alive soon… unfortunately, I will not be able to go with you." "Don't worry, I'll get the Dragonballs and bring you back!" "No… I want to stay here, even though I want to be alive with you again badly. When I died, I learned of my past life. I don't want to leave it again. Please…" she begs of me. Damn, I want her back… but I can't deny her that if it means so much to her. "…okay…" I say sadly. "Do your best for me. I'll meet you again." #8 says. I start fading. The last thing I see is a tear drop from #8's eye. I shed a tear too.
Chapter 45
I open my eyes and sit up hastily. "Where am I?" I ask to nothing but the air. The sky is black, and the ground is shaking. "Why am I alive? WHY!" I scream at the sky. I leap into the air and destroy an island, just to release some anger. My power is now 700,000. But does it matter? I still can't beat Freeza. I want to stay dead, to stay with #8. DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!
"Huh?" I notice some flashes to the west. Two absurdly high powers are over there. One at 1,200,000… Freeza. But the other… it's at 1,300,000. Who is it? I take off towards the two fighters.
When I'm within half a mile, I'm able to make out the other fighter. Shirtless, orange pants, blue boots, yellow hair and aura. Then I can identify him. Kakarotto? How'd he get so powerful, and what's with his hair? Is this… is this Super Saiyajin?
I see Vegita floating in front of them, about to shoot Freeza. Isn't he dead? But then he vanishes. Huh? All of a sudden, I vanish too.
"THUNK!" I land heavily in a forest. "What the hell's going on here!" I yell out.
"We're back!" I hear some kid yell. I look behind me and see Gohan jumping for joy.
"What's going on here!" I ask Gohan, barely restraining myself from screaming in frustration. "I don't know… but we're back!" Gohan yells.
I leave in search of someone who will give me answers. "I may be able to answer you." I look to see a huge Nameck. "Fine, what happened?" I ask, ignoring the rest of the people gathered around this giant Nameck. "What happened, is that Kami used the Earth Dragonballs to resurrect everyone killed by Freeza on Nameck. Then Dende used the now working Dragonballs on Nameck to teleport everyone but Freeza and Goku on to Earth." he finishes.
If EVERYONE killed by Freeza on Nameck was brought back… I search frantically for #8. But I can't find her anywhere. Then Zarbon's last words hit me. "Heh… you… will never… know… not… him…". Not him? I finally understand what he was telling me. Freeza didn't finish #8 off. And since Zarbon was the only other person as far as I know… that means Zarbon had killed off #8. So then I was able to get partial revenge. It's only partial though, since Freeza was who decided upon it.
"Damnit…" I look at the ground… what's left for me then? "What's wrong?" Gohan asks me. "Leave me be boy…" I walk off to nowhere in particular. The people I met on Nameck look after me almost… worriedly? Why should they be worried? I was going to kill them for their Dragonball. I didn't care for their lives, why should they care for mine?
"Hey…" Gohan says. "Shut up. And why are you so worried about me? I was going to kill you for your Dragonball earlier. I didn't, and still don't, care for your lives. Why should you give a shit about how I feel?" I throw at them as I walk off. I don't even wait for an answer.
I wander for a while. Nothing matters. Nothing matters at all. I couldn't even get my proper revenge. And now I'm also out of work. I sit down in the middle of the forest.
"HAHAHA!" I see Vegita laughing and throwing grass into the air. It's a pretty funny sight, and it lifts my mood slightly.
Vegita then gets up and goes towards the others. I shrug, nothing else to do. I follow.
I look around. There are a lot of Namecks here. They were brought back to life too it seems. Makes sense. I recognize that Nameck Elder, from earlier. Was that only this morning? It feels like it was days ago. He's walks up to me.
"I knew you weren't evil like the others." he says. "HMPH!" I respond. "I've been told on what you did. Fighting Freeza." "So? Vegita fought too, but he is just as evil." "You're different. He did it for self gain, you were doing it for another reason, weren't you?" "My reasons are none of your business." I say as I walk away.
"Son… Goku…" I hear Piccilo say. He's looking up into the sky. "Is Kakarotto your friend or something?" I ask. Piccilo glares at me. "Sort of…" he looks at the sky once more. "He's still on Nameck, isn't he?" "Yeah." "Damn… but from the looks of it… the planet seemed to be destroying itself." I say. "Freeza put a large hole in it. It's going to explode shortly." Piccilo tells me. So, Kakarotto is dead then? The only Saiyajin left is Vegita. Wait… and Gohan too. He called Kakarotto his 'Daddy'. I wonder how it feels, to be the prince of dust?
I hope Freeza dies a slow death. He's caused everyone much loss. These people from Earth had lost a friend, Vegita lost his homeworld, and I lost #8. But am I really all that much better than Freeza? I've destroyed countless worlds too. Put species into extinction. Destroyed lives. Heh, some warrior I am, brooding over my loss when I've caused millions just as much loss if not more. What a hypocrite I am. But it still hurts. Maybe I'm paying for it now. At least the other millions I've hurt are dead and don't have to deal with my loss.
Vegita starts a fight with Gohan. Surprisingly, Gohan gets a hit in. But Vegita retaliates and nearly kills the child before Piccilo interrupts. Vegita flies off somewhere.
Some sort of ceremony takes place and that Nameck Elder I know replaces that giant Nameck as their leader. The Dragonballs from Nameck also somehow followed us here. But they aren't usable yet.
"HEY! Everybody! While we wait to use Dragonballs, why don't you stay at my place?" someone yells out. I turn around. It's that blue haired girl. Her name is Bulma, I think. Well, why not? I have nowhere else to go.
