Ice flew over the city silently. He kept flying until he reached the Capsule Corporation and set down. Most of the other Z soldiers were there already. This would become the first training day. Ice saw Tenshinhan, Piccolo, Yamcha, and Chaoszu. They were all resurrected. The only one they lacked for training was Kuririn. By logic, he should have been brought back with the others on Namek. But where was he?
"Ready?" asked Yamcha
"Yeah." Said Ice
They then summoned the dragon Shenlong. They asked him to resurrect Kuririn, but they were told no.
"Why?" they asked
Shenlong told them he was not dead, and asked for a wish.
"Let us know where he and Freeza are, and when they're coming back."
Shenlong was silent. His eyes glowed red, and Ice hit the ground in pain. He then spoke.
"Your wish has been granted. And now, I bid you farewell."
Shenlong gathered the dragonballs, and disappeared.
Ice slowly stood up.
"I see them!" he cried
Far away, on a distant planet
The space pod landed on the alien planet. Locals of the planet ran to it to investigate. The space pod slowly opened, and the figure walked out. The aliens were awed by his awesome power as he walked among them. He gazed at them slowly and walked back into his pod. He tapped a button and spoke.
"Location."
"You are at the planet Yardrat. Highest power level present: yours"
"Wow! I'm at an alien planet, and I'm the strongest one here! All right!"
He walked outside and walked to one of the aliens.
"Hi! My name's Kuririn! Nice to meet you!"
The alien chirped in response. He seemed friendly, and walked him to a village. There he met the leader of their village and ate food. They seemed a little disappointed he was not able to eat as much as they could, but he ate enough to make them happy.
A couple of days passed, and they began to repair his ship. They also taught him a translating technique, allowing him to understand any language. One Yardrat-jin, named Cheecha, became his friend and teacher of many techniques. After a few weeks, Kuririn had mastered the Instantaneous Movement technique. He also learned some other techniques while he was there. In return, he taught Cheecha how to gather ki and fly. Soon they would spar evenly, Kuririn having the power advantage, Cheecha the technique advantage.
Kuririn pressed his fingers against his forehead, and disappeared. Cheecha did the same, and soon Kuririn would chase him, though Cheecha was able to teleport to anywhere he chose. They stopped, and gathered ki. Kuririn fired a Kamehameha, and Cheecha powered up his own move. While Kuririn shot a beam, Cheecha made a yellow wall that the beam went into, and came out of another beam behind Kuririn. Kuririn was hit and fell down, then got back up. He mentally wrote that move in his mind of techniques he would have to learn from Cheecha. He got up, then fell down immediately. Cheecha came over, concerned. He realized Kuririn was sick and weak, and had him in bed resting immediately.
He thought to himself of what happened since Namek while he was in bed being treated.
"I remember that I was suddenly alive on Namek. I saw Piccolo and Ice and the others all fighting Kakarot, and got scared. I ran away and found a Ginyu space pod, then got in and took off for the next planet on its schedule and hit autopilot. I landed here, but it seems that I've caught a heart disease. Good thing they have advanced technology to help me out or I'd be a goner."
Soon Kuririn fell asleep. A couple of days later he was healed completely of the disease, and was able to spar actively again. However, it wasn't all fun and games for long. One day Kuririn and Cheecha were sparring when another ship landed. Kuririn and Cheecha flew to it and observed it silently. Soon two men came out and talked. One was a short ugly yellow rat-thing, another a large red demon. Both wore a large "M" on them. Kuririn got a bad vibe from them, but Cheecha did not.
"More friends?" he asked
"No. Not more friends." Said Kuririn
"Sure they are! I'm going to go greet them!" said Cheecha, flying off
Kuririn tried to stop him, but Cheecha teleported to them. The short one was ver interested in him, and started to wave his hands. Cheecha hovered suddenly and began to scream while a yellow blue aura covered him. After a few seconds, he fell down and silently got up. He turned around, and looked right at Kuririn. He had a large "M" tattoo on his forehead. Kuririn silently screamed, until Cheecha teleported right next to him. He looked at Kuririn coldly and punched him into a mountain. Kuririn was stuck, but soon destroyed the mountain to escape. As soon as he did, Cheecha punched his gut and fired a ki blast in his face. Kuririn fell back, then kneed his gut. Cheecha doubled over, then uppercutted him. Kuririn hit the ground and wiped some blood off his face. He lifted his arm and decided to use a technique he never used yet against Cheecha. The Kienzan developed above his head, rotating. Cheecha powered up a ki blast and fired it at Kuririn. Kuririn turned the Kienzan on its side and used it as a shield to block the blast. Cheecha appeared behind him and punched his side.
Cheecha himself made a Kienzan, and flew forward. Kuririn brought his forward to counter his attack. Cheecha floated in the air and began to slash at him with his Kienzan, but Kuririn was too fast. He jumped forward, and punched him right across the face with all his might. Cheecha fell to the ground. Kuririn tossed the Kienzan in the direction of the little man and large demon. He powered up a Kamehameha and fired it at Cheecha. It hit, and exploded. Kuririn saw a dust cloud develop and prepared for Cheecha to jump out of the dust cloud or appear behind him. He didn't. As soon as the dust cleared, Kuririn flew down and looked at his beaten and bloody friend. He still had the M on his forehead, and tried to get up to attack him still. Kuririn almost cried with grief. He felt someone appear behind him and turned. The demon was there.
"Hello, little one. My name is Majin Darbura. What's yours?" he smirked
"K….K….Kuririn!" he said, scared out of his mind.
"Well "Kuririn" don't worry, I won't kill you. You beat too much hell out of that Yardrat-jin. No, I think instead of killing you, I'll simply make you a Majin, like me. My master, Lord Babidi, will make you a Majin.
Darbura walked forward and grinned. He stopped grinning suddenly. Kuririn had fired a small Kienzan that imbedded itself in his neck. Darbura grabbed it and dissipated it. He grinned, while the wound healed itself before his eyes. Kuririn looked, scared while Darbura walked to him then smacked him away like a fly.
Kuririn was going at several hundreds miles per hour as he rocketed out of the atmosphere. He didn't have time to breathe before he was almost in space. He closed his eyes and screamed out:
"TIME FREEZE!"
Suddenly he was no longer moving. He was frozen in time. He concentrated, and slowly moved out of his stance and flew back to Earth. He flew back and watched at all the Yardrat-jin frozen in time. Some were eating, some resting. None moved. Kuririn flew back to Darbura and flew back down. Darbura was frozen in time as well. Kuririn looked him all over, observing him. Suddenly he realized he was breathing, and froze. Darbura turned his head and grinned evilly.
"Nice trick, worm. I'll have to learn it from you when you're Majin. Only problem is it freezes weak opponents, only the strongest can escape. And I escaped. And know what else? You froze this entire planet. When you're frozen, you're conscious. And when you're conscious, you need air. You can't breathe when you're frozen. You just killed an entire planet for us. Good job, you'll be a good Majin!" said Darbura
Kuririn realized his mistake and unfroze everyone. He looked around, and FELT the entire planet drop, dead. Cheecha got up, healed by Darbura or Babidi. He was unaffected.
"Is the whole planet dead? Did I kill an entire race?" asked Kuririn
"No, I'm still alive. Unfortunately, those Yardrat-jin over there aren't. Good thing they can still fight!" said Cheecha
Kuririn looked over and saw a group of Yardrat-jin. Each had twice their normal power.
"Dead Yardrat-jin, attack this infidel!" yelled the Babidi, appearing from behind a boulder
The dead Yardrat-jin obeyed and flew forward to Kuririn. Kuririn was frozen in fear.
"Wait a second, they're all dead! I can kill them, or at least take them down!" realized Kuririn
Kuririn jumped up, and kicked one's head off. He grabbed another's arm, and ripped it off the beat off 3 others. The headless one grabbed him, but he slipped out of his grip and tossed him in the air, and used a ki blast to destroy him. The others powered up ki, and fired at him. He countered with a Kamehameha, taking out the group. He stood, victorious. He noted the pieces of the Yardrat-jin coming together and healing to make a battle-ready Yardrat-jin. Even the ones destroyed by the ki blasts appeared, their molecules forming together again. Soon the whole group was chasing him again. Kuririn yelled in fear and realized he had to escape.
"TIME FREEZE!" he yelled
The attacking Yardrat-jin froze, and he ran. Darbura and the rest of the Majin quickly were able to move again, but Kuririn needed more time. He unfroze and fled, just as the Yardrat-jin unfroze and chased him. He used Instantaneous Movement to appear next to his space ship. Several Yardrat-jin were there already, and attacked him. Kuririn quickly took care of them and activated his ship.
Darbura and Cheecha watched as the space pod flew out of the hut where it was being repaired. Cheecha powered up and quickly destroyed it. Darbura did not flinch.
"Smart midget. That was a decoy. He used that teleporting move to escape. Don't worry, we'll kill him soon enough. He's merely a worm, no where near my power. Come, let us revive Buu on another planet." Said Darbura, walking into the ship
Cheecha waited while all of the Yardrat-jin got into the ship, and then they took off, going for another planet.
Ice
Kuririn suddenly appeared before Ice. Yamcha and the others welcomed him, but Piccolo asked where he was all this time, and then continued to observe Ice. Ice was in a trance still.
"Freeza!" said Ice
Freeza
Freeza woke up suddenly. He was buried in asteroid dust. That metal Saiya-jin must have beat me, me thought. He lifted off and flew away, looking for shelter. Freeza was amazed he could breathe. Soon he saw a metal glowing, and flew to it. It was a metal Saiya-jin, but not the one he fought.
"Hello." He said
"Who the hell are you? That bastard who attacked me?" demanded Freeza
"I'm Celus. I'm about to get even on those bastards who almost killed me. Care to join?" he said
"I'm game. Here's the plan………." Said Freeza
Later on the ship
The Saiya-jin were sleeping. Broc jumped up suddenly when he heard a large thump on the hull.
"It's Celus! He's come back from the grave to kill us all!" yelled Broc
"Shadup. It's just a friggin' rock. Go to sleep." Said Taurus
Broc instead got up and clothed. He walked to the door to the outside and stared. He wondered if Celus was going to kill him. He shook it off, remembering his proud Saiya-jin heritage. He turned around, staring into Celus's eyes. Broc looked shocked, then angry. He brought forth his fist, but Celus activated his metal shell feature and grabbed his fist. With one clawed hand, Celus grabbed Broc's throat and ripped out his vocal cords. Broc silently screamed, but Celus grabbed his head with two hands. With cruel intentions, he squeezed, and exploded his head. Celus wiped off Broc's blood and walked off.
Freeza
Freeza flew around the window outside the Saiya-jin's quarters. He pressed his ears against the window and listened to the conversation inside.
"So Bardock, when do we move?"
"We shall proceed with the plan soon. We must first give all the others the power-suits. Once we have them, we can activate the obedience program and take control of the greatest powers and minds of the empire."
"About the Icicle-jin….."
"Yes, I know. Usually the suit increases power 2 times, but for his race, it appears to be 5 times. We cannot hope to defeat him in combat. His power level is about 200 million max right now. The best thing to do would be to wait and develop a stronger program for controlling him. With him, we must be sure our power is absolute and complete. He is the strongest one in the galaxy, and we cannot afford to lose him by attempting to use a less than perfect control program."
"I see. And of the alien I fought?"
"Probably just Freeza. According the reports, he wouldn't have a prayer against us or even Kakarot."
Freeza was startled for them to say his name, and he flew to the other side of the ship. There he found Kakarot and Vegeta sparring, and moved on. The last room he found was the most interesting. Koola.
Koola breathed in deep, and pressed two fingers on his temple. Instantly the metal shell covered him completely. He flexed his muscles and stared at his claws. He suddenly looked at the window, and Freeza ducked away. He fired a blast that destroyed the window. He then jumped through the window and flew to Freeza.
"Brother…..So NICE to see you again." Said Koola with a smirk
"You're my brother?" asked Freeza
"I am. You have grown up well, my brother. You are now worthy to be called family."
Freeza was silent.
"Do you feel it? Can you feel my new power? I have easily twice King Vegeta's strength!"
"King Vegeta?" asked Freeza
"Yes, the king of the Saiya-jin empire. Who cares about him, I have so much power!"
"This king…..is he unhappy of what I did to his son and Kakarot?"
"Yeah, he wants you dead. Who cared about that stupid monkey. I have POWER."
"Does he know the location of the planet Earth?"
"Sure, it's in our files. Who cares?"
"Oh shit. Well brother, I have to leave now. I have to train. Farewell!"
Freeza lifted off and started to fly away.
"Oh and Freeza…"
"Yes?"
"Watch how much you train. If you become a threat to my power, I WILL kill you without remorse."
"I'll keep that in mind."
Freeza flew away silently towards Earth at max speed.
In the ship
Celus walked to Taurus's chambers. He opened the door and walked in. He closed the door as he lifted his clawed hand above Taurus's head. He later walked out of the room and went to Brolly's chambers, wiping the fresh blood off his claws.
Ice
Ice opened his eyes.
"Freeza's coming in one year. By that time, the Saiya-jin army will have arrived and destroyed us all. We have one year to train or we will all die a horrible death, and so will Freeza when he arrives here to find us all dead and Kakarot and Vegeta waiting with an army behind them."
They all quickly agreed to train together, using the gravity machine from Dr. Briefs.
Capsule Corporation, 6 months later
Ice stepped was in line to get his power level read by Bulma. They did this every month to test and see how they had improved. Piccolo was the first.
"Ok, Piccolo…..you have roughly…….40 million for a power level." Said Bulma, wearing the scouter
Piccolo grunted and went back into the gravity machine. Yamcha walked up next.
"Yamcha comes to 15 million. Way to go!" said Bulma
Yamcha looked sad he was so much weaker than Piccolo and walked in the gravity room as well
"Chaoszu! You have a power level of 10 million! Wow! And Tenshinhan has 27 million! Way to go!"
The two walked to the gravity room as well.
"Kuririn, you're at 25 million. Go away." Said Bulma
Kuririn sighed, and waited for Ice.
"Kuririn, you go ahead. I want to keep my power level secret."
Kuririn saw the look in Ice's blue eyes and walked away.
"Ice! Your power level is 45 million! Way to go!"
Ice walked away, ignoring Bulma and thinking. On his way in, he cranked up the gravity to twice what it was. All fell to the floor.
"Ice! We can't move! Let us up!" complained Yamcha
"We need to train a LOT harder. From now on, we keep the gravity at a constant above what we can handle. I don't want to die, and I need each and every one of you to keep me and you alive."
They all were silent and tried to get up.
Planet Vegeta
King Vegeta walked up to the ship after it arrived. Most of the crew were gone, but he was happy somewhat to see Vegeta and Kakarot back in perfect health.
"REPORT!" he yelled
"Sir, we recovered these two in space and were able to revive them. Temal and Nappa, on the other hand, were beyond help. We will attempt to give them robotic features so that they can fight for your excellency again in battle."
"Good. Losses?"
"The Saiya-jin Taurus, Brolly, and Broc were almost killed, but as you can see, they were revived. Also, the Saiya-jin Celus was lost for a few days, but returned unharmed. We also have found this remarkable machine in space, and will attempt to rebuild it for war purposes."
King Vegeta stared at Taurus, Brolly, Broc, Celus, and the remains of #8.
"Very good."
"Father, I request a small force to annihilate the planet Earth and get vengeance. I have a list here of requested soldiers." Said Vegeta
Vegeta handed his father a list, which he read carefully. It read as follows:
Kakarot
Taurus
Brolly
Celus
Broc
Bardock
Raditz
It also had a list of minor powered Saiya-jin and scientists, but King Vegeta didn't bother to read them.
"Will you be there, Vegeta?" he asked
"I intend on exacting my revenge myself on the lizard."
"Very well, but I do not see my name. If they were strong enough to beat you, I want to go. I haven't had a decent fight for ages. So tell me, why isn't my name here?"
Vegeta spoke something, but King Vegeta ignored it and punched Vegeta in his face. His fist was stopped by Vegeta's hand suddenly. The two struggled for a second, then released.
"Very well, brat. You are becoming a Saiya-jin. You and I shall go, and we shall leave tomorrow."
The plans were arranged, and they soon set off.
Capsule Corporation
Bulma walked to the gravity machine and turned it off. Instantly Ice was there, ready for anything.
"Ice! You only have a visitor!" said Bulma
"I don't have time for visitors. Tell them to go away." Said Ice
Ice began to walk away.
"But it's Uranai Baba!"
Ice froze.
"Give me a second."
Within a minute, Ice was seated across from Uranai Baba in the dining room.
"You wanted to see me?" asked Ice
"Yes. I saw a vision in my crystal ball. Come, see."
She brought out her ball and handed it to Ice. Ice watched the ball as it showed all the Saiya-jin taking off in the spaceship. Ice was silent for a moment.
"How long?" he whispered
"A few months. May 14 is the exact day. Freeza will come back on May 14 or 15. Hope it's the 14, because you need his help. You've heard all you need to hear."
Uranai jumped on her ball and flew away. Ice got up and walked back to the gravity machine. He turned up the gravity even more. Again, they all complained. Ice simply said one thing, and they worked harder than ever.
"They're coming in 5 months."
5 months later
They had received their new power levels. They were all ready for battle, and had dozens of senzu beans. They were waiting at Capsule Corporation for the Saiya-jin power levels to pop up, so they could fly to the location. Their power levels were as following:
Chaoszu: 15 million
Yamcha: 30 million
Kuririn: 50 million
Tenshinhan : 50 million
Piccolo: 75 million
Ice: 85 million
Soon, they felt an immense power level, far greater than theirs. They stood up and simultaneously flew off, knowing the exact location. Satan City.
Satan City
The 6 were gathered on top of one skyscraper, waiting. Kuririn turned to Ice to say something, but an immense wind blew him off his feet. They all looked up and saw the immense ship coming down on the city. As they watched, it crashed into the tallest skyscraper and settled down on the remains. A few figures jumped out of the ship and hit the ground below.
"Lord Vegeta, we have determined the largest population based location on this planet. If we destroy most of this city, they will surely come quickly." Said a scientist
King Vegeta sat at his throne and grinned.
"Very well. All those soldier less powerful than the elite, go out and destroy the city." Said Vegeta
The scientist nodded and gathered the 20 or so minor soldiers and sent them off.
Below
The soldiers all landed on the ground. Waiting for them was a green large man. He leaned casually against a building.
"GET HIM!!!!" they all yelled in unison
They all fired a ki blast at Piccolo, except he was gone. He was behind two of them, and quickly crushed their heads together. The others yelled and fired their blasts at him as he disappeared and reappeared, taking out men as he went. Ice appeared behind 3 and blasted their backs away. Chaoszu fled as 1 large one flew after him though a building. He stopped suddenly and the large soldier approached him slowly.
"You're gonna die, kid….." he said
Suddenly a mountain of muscle named Tenshinhan appeared behind him and grabbed him. He struggled, but Tenshinhan quickly broke his neck. The two celebrated their victory until the room was blasted away by several men outside. Tenshinhan was hit and knocked unconscious, Chaoszu as well. The men continued blasting until they suddenly stopped, and Kuririn and Yamcha dropped their bodies to the ground.
"Thanks." Said Tenshinhan no longer playing unconscious
Yamcha suddenly yelled out a warning, but it was too late. A ki blast from the ship totally eradicated the building. The Ship itself was firing upon them.
Kuririn jumped up, and powered up. Yamcha and Tein were at his side. They spoke the words together, as one.
"KAMEHAMEHA!!!!!!"
Their blast soared towards the ship but was suddenly stopped by a single person. The person dissipated the blast, and they were horrified to see the face of Kakarot.
"Hello, kiddies…….." he said, going SSJ
Kakarot appeared before them and grinned. Within seconds all of them were knocked through the roof and were unable to move or fight. Kakarot landed, and looked around. The Namek and the Icicle-jin were still beating the hell out of his men. He powered ki in his hand and held it above his head.
"YAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"
The yell was not from Kakarot. It was from a mysterious figure moving too fast to detect. Kakarot looked down. His hand had just been cut cleanly off.
"AHHHHHH!!!!! MY HAND!!!!!!"
The person stopped suddenly, and Kakarot got a good look at him.
His boots were definitely Saiya-jin issued, complete with the gold tip. His pants were extremely baggy, and black. He had a Saiya-jin battle chest piece on, and a jacket on top of that. Most noticeably, the fact he was a Super Saiya-jin.
"Who the hell are you?!?!?!" demanded Kakarot, holding his stump
"My name is Trunks." Said the youth, sheathing his blade.
