"What's wrong Son-kun?," the creature said smiling as innocently as possible. Goku circled her cautiously, forgetting Freeza who was still recovering from his own shock. Her body was tight and curved and beautifully built, not an ounce of fat showed. A silver tiara rested on her head with an emerald green gem in the center. Her outfit resembled a tube top except its collar was lined with spikes. The skimpy shirt stopped by the end of her ribs revealing her lightly tanned stomach. She wore a pair of tight black spandex leather pants and black army boots. Her one wing brushed him startling him. Her blood red eyes seemed to pair into the depths of your very soul. A low angry growl startled Goku out of his trance and he watch as a gray wolf like animal wit eyes like blood red rubies take his place at the teen's side. The girl smiled once again revealing her sharp cruel fangs. She looked up at Goku. "Meet my new pet, Interceptor," she smirked, "he was a gift. He is the offspring of Cerbues." "The three headed dog that guards the gates of Hades?" Freeza questioned. The girl pivoted and with a hateful snarl threw a ki blast at Freeza knocking him into the raging waters, "Did I say you could speak?!" She then spread her wings and flew to Goku's side.
Goku stared at the girl at his side and for the first time realized how small she was compared to him. She was only about as tall as ChiChi. "How old are you?" he asked. The girl smiled, "I'm really only about 5 ¾. But I posses much power Son-kun. My current body could not handle the stress. So I was given a stronger body. So……I guess physically, I'm around oh…..let's say……15. Goku's eye brow raised, "You're pretty damn short for 15." She frowned, "Shut up."
{Meanwhile}
"King Kai? Is there any hope for Goku?" Tien asked. King Kai looked to the ground he couldn't lie to them. "Even with his Super Sayain strength Goku cannot beat him. I'm Sorry." "No!" Chauo- Zou wailed. Then the newcomer to the group at King Kai's looked up. "They will win. And it will be Terra who saves their worthless asses." King Kai looked at him, "I know you have faith in her. But it's hopeless. I'm sorry Vegeta." Vegeta looked at King Kai, "You're wrong. Terra will win and when she does I will make sure that you regret your foolish words."
Goku watched as Freeza climbed out of the water. Terra saw this too and fired a ki blast at the rock he was climbing on causing him to fall back in. Goku shook his head, "I still don't believe you." She smiled again. "I have an older twin brother named Thomas Strife and an older twin sister Cathreine."
Goku shook his head, "Terra had a twin brother and besides anyone could find that out." Bitterness flickered in Terra's eyes, "I have a pet hawk named Tobias, I used to have a nanny named Kita, my favorite food is Chinese take out, and Gohan has a scar on the back of his head from falling down the steps when he was 2 when you were supposed to be watching Cat, Tommy, Gohan, and me." Goku couldn't believe it, "So!? A-A-Anyone could find that out!" She smirked, "Yes, but no one knows about the tattoo incident." Goku's jaw dropped, "H-H-How do you know about that?" She sighed, "I was 4 years old and I asked to get a tattoo. Of course my parents said no, but I didn't listen. Since you had to be 18 to get one, I foolishly took a lit cigarette and burned the Sayain symbols for "Bravery", "Loyalty", and "Friendship" into my upper arm. Then I gave Gohan the same symbols on his arm. He screamed and ChiChi and the others came in. I was grounded for 6 months and had to attend therapy for 12 weeks. Gohan had surgery to remove the scar tissue, but I didn't." She then lifted up her arm to reveal three sayain symbols tattooed there. "T-chan…..is it really you?" Goku asked. "Well sorta," Terra smirked. "How did this happen and what do you mean by sorta?" Goku said. Terra sighed, "Jenova cells. My father had them and when I was conceived they were passed down to me. This is the result; pure negative energy. And by sorta I meant that it's my mind but another creature's body." Goku felt a lump rise in his throat, "W-W-What creature?" Terra smiled and her eyes turned a darker red and when she spoke it was no longer her voice but the voice of another, "Me. And may I ask you to refain from calling me a 'creature.' My name is Torendea." Then the infamous look of stupidity crossed Goku's face, "Toren-what?!" Torendea frowned, "TORENDEA! It's pronounced Tor-en-day! You simpleton!" Goku glared at the shorter girl in front of him, "Where's Terra?" Torendea growled, "She's fine!" Then a smirk crossed her lips, "Pardon my manners. I'm in a terribly bad mood. After all I have been trapped in hell for nearly an eternity." "NANI!" Goku screamed, "Hell? How old are you? And what are you anyway?" "I am a demon you idiot! Isn't that obvious! And as for my age I stopped counting after 1,476,785,575. Put shortly I'm pretty damn old. The reason I'm here is to help Terra. After all this is really my body what just lettin her use it." She then said, "Isn't it amazing. I mean how to total strangers could look so much alike?" Then her eyes lightened and Terra's voice returned, "Sorry bout that she's not a very positive person."
Suddenly, "I don't are what you are! It's time for you to die!" Terra turned to face Freeza, "I don't think so." Terra flew at the insane alien and knocked him off his feet. She then proceeded to punch and kick his battered form into the ground. A blast from Freeza sent the raging teen away. Freeza couldn't believe that actually caused pain! With an angry snarl he charged a blast and threw it right at the planets very core. The explosion that followed blinded the last few people that were on the planet.
Goku didn't understand. What was he doing? Terra whose leg had been injured in the explosion limped to his side with Interceptor following behind. She looked at Goku, "He's trying to destroy the planet right out from under us. He knows we can't breathe in space………but he can." NANI!" Goku said, "Kuso! But what about Gohan, Bulma, Cat, and Piccolo?" Terra sighed her eyes showing deep sadness, "They die." Goku couldn't believe it. He wouldn't believe it. "We can't just let them die," he said. Terra's eyes were closed and she looked like she was deep in thought. Then suddenly her eyes snapped open, "Buy me 5 minutes!" Then she limped behind a rock, closed her eyes, and focused all her energy on transferring her spirit. "Why!?" Goku asked. "I have a plan."
"Oh no!" King Kai shouted. "King Kai what's wrong?!" Yamcha asked. "Freeza is going to destroy the planet. They'll all be killed!" he shouted. Everyone turned to Vegeta who simply said, "You're wrong." King Kai sighed, "Vegeta……" Suddenly, "King Kai!" Everyone turned to see a teenage girl appear in front of King Kai, fall in pain, but then regain her stance. Kai raised an antenna but then began to recognize her. "Terra!?" Yamcha stared at her and gave himself a nosebleed by doing so. Vegeta's jaw dropped in shock, and then he noticed Yamcha staring at the amount of cleavage Terra's outfit showed and the drop of blood leaking from his nose. His eyes narrowed and he punched Yamcha into a nearby tree, "YOU DISGUSTING PIECE OF SHIT!!!" Kai smirked, "So you've gained control of Torendea?" Just as Terra nodded her eyes turned much darker and Torendea's voice growled, "No one controls me you ignorant blue cat fish!" Then Terra's eyes and voice returned to normal, "Hehe……Sorry bout that." "Who's Torendea?" Tien asked. "Torendea is an ancient demon that has the ability to give the one she's see fit her service, soul, and powers." Vegeta said circling his niece like a shark glaring at anyone who so much as looked at her wrong. "Yeah we have that legend on Namek too! It looks like Terra is the one Torendea saw fit!" Dende shouted.
Terra turned to face Dende, "How did you get here?!" Dende smirked, "I made Prince Vegetable carry me here!" Terra smirked and looked at Vegeta , "You carried him?" Vegeta snarled, "I had my reasons. He had something worth my interest." Terra looked at Dende who was smiling nervously after Vegeta's last comment. Then she noticed a digital diary sticking out of the young namek's pocket. A sticker was visible and it said: Property of Terra Vegeta Strife. You touch you die! "You little slug! You let him listen to my diary!?" She screamed. "Uh……hehe…….well…um..sotra…kinda…….yes," Dende said before he turned around and ran up a tree. Terra followed still screaming at him. "I only let him listen to a few entries!! Don't kill me!" Dende yelled.
"Um…..Terra, why are you here?" King Kai asked. Terra turned back towards Kai, "Oh yeah! Tell Kami to wish back all the people Freeza killed on the Earth Dragonballs! If he does then Guru will probably be brought back to! Then we can use our last wish to wish everyone back to Earth." King Kai smiled, "You're smarter then people give you credit for Terra." Then he proceeded to tell Kami the plans. Terra turned to the others, "I'll be seeing you all later! Oh and Dende-kun, when you get back, I'm gonna beat the crap out of you! Ja-ne!" And with that Terra's image disappeared.
{back on Namek}
Goku looked around. They didn't have much longer. The planet was almost gone. Then there was a yell. He looked to see Terra waving at him, "Goku! Don't worry bout the others! They're gonna be ok!" "How?!" Goku yelled back. "Just trust me! And Goku…..WATCH OUT!" She screamed as Freeza's energy disk came right at him. Goku dodged just in time. Suddenly, "What the hell happened?!" Terra turned to see Dende looking at her. "Don't worry bout that now! Dende see the Dragon!?" Terra yelled pointing to the Eternal Dragon of Namek. "Yeah?" Dende said. "You have to use the last wish to transport everyone but me, Goku, and Freeza to Earth," She said "But what about you guys?" Dende asked. Terra frowned, "JUST DO IT!" Then Terra turned and launched another attack on Freeza while Dende turned and flew to the dragon with the wish that could save them.
Freeza felt a pain rip through him as Terra's Double Dragon blast threw him into a rock. He looked up with a snarl on his face. Then he saw it. The Eternal Dragon! And in front of it stood the young Namek he could've sworn he killed. "NO~OOO!" Freeza screamed as the dragon and the namek disappeared. He turned to Goku, "You stupid monkey bastard!!!" Goku frowned but didn't say anything that is until he saw Freeza's own energy dick coming up behind him, "Freeza watch out!" But it was too late as Freeza's own attack sawed him in half. Freeza lay on the ground the only thing he felt was pain. He looked up at Goku and Terra who had reverted back to her younger self, "You can't ….leave me here….. Please! Have …mercy." Goku turned and looked at him, "Like the mercy you had on Krillen, Vegeta, and Dende?!" Freeza looked at him begging, "Please……I'll leave this place…..you'll never see me again!" Goku frowned but extended his hand. Freeza looked up at him and took it. "GOKU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" Terra screamed. "I'm giving him enough energy to leave this place and no more," he said. Terra's eyes filled with shock, "You can't! Kill him! Kill him now!" Goku looked up at Terra with surprise, "Terra! What's gotten into you!?" Then he turned his back to Freeza who collected the energy that he had just been given preparing to shoot Goku in the back. But Terra saw this, "I don't think so," She said as she flared into Super Sayain, "Say good night asshole. Double Dragon Blast!" And with that Freeza was swallowed in Terra's attack screaming in agony. Terra turned to Goku, "We gotta get out of here!" And then turned to Freeza's ship and flew as fast as she could.
Cathreine opened her eyes to see her home planet rolled out before her. "What? Huh?" she said turning to see Dende healing Piccolo and to see the whole population of namek standing there bewildered. "DENDE!" she screeched knocking him over and sitting on his stomach. "Um…Hi Cat-chan," Dende said. "What's going on here?" Gohan asked. "What do you think?" Vegeta said, "Terra had the idea to wish all your asses back to Earth so she and Kakkarot could defeat Freeza." "But the planet's about to explode!" Cathreine yelled. For a second a look of despair crossed Vegeta's face, "I know they only have a few seconds to get off that rock before it blows if they don't they'll die."
Suddenly, "VEGETA!" Vegeta turned only to be thrown against a tree by a very pissed off Cloud. "Where is Terra!?" Cloud yelled. "On namek. All we can do now is pray she and Kakkarot find a way to get off that planet." Vegeta sighed, **I'm sorry Cloud.**
Terra frantically pushed buttons and switches trying to get the ship to fly. In fustration she punched the control board causing sparks to spray everywhere. "Terra come on! It destroyed! It isn't gonna fly!" Goku yelled. Then Terra remembered, "Goku! The Ginyu Force's ships! They're still here!" Terra ran from the ship and out the five pods. "SHIT! They're all damaged! Here Goku get in this one!" She said giving Goku the one with the least damage. As Goku climbed in as Terra melted a piece of metal over the Damage area. "Terra get in a pod before this place blows!" Goku yelled about to get out when suddenly the door closed and locked. "NO! TERRA GET IN A POD NOW!" Terra didn't listen as she directed Interceptor to another not as damaged pod and repaired that one. Suddenly Goku and Interceptor's ships began to take off. "NO!!! TERRA!!" Goku screamed looking down at the broken planet. The last thing he saw was Terra's grim smile as she mouthed out the words goodbye. "NO~OOOOO!" goku screamed but it was too late.
Terra felt the ground move from under her feet. Then the deafening explosion. She prepared her self for the blast, "Dear God I hope this works." Then the explosion swallowed her form.
"NO!" Cathreine wailed as she felt the planet's destruction. Vegeta pounded his fist into a tree and Dende and Gohan stared at the ground in disbelief. Vegeta looked at Cathreine ignoring Bulma's rattling about how the Namek's could stay with her. Ignoring Guru's passing and the passing down of the power of the dragonballs. All he saw was Cathreine and the look of pure despair on her face. Suddenly he heard her snicker, then it was louder until Cathreine stood there laughing insanely. Cloud frowned and placed a hand on his daughter's shoulder, "Cathreine stop. We'll wish her back I promise." Cathriene pulled away and looked at her father, "NO SHE'S ALIVE! YOU FOOLS! YOU THINK SHE'D JUST DIE! WELL YOU'RE WRONG!! WRONG!!! WRONG! I KNOW TERRA AND I KNOW SOMETHING NONE OF YOU DO! She's alive I don't care what you say! She's alive!" And with that Cathreine ran into the woods her crying could still be heard.
{A few months later}
The day had come. Krillen had been wished back and now it was time to bring back Terra and Goku. Dende looked up at the dragon and casted the wish. The Namkeian Dragon's eyes flared and he said, "That wish can not be granted." "WHAT!?" Vegeta yelled. The dragon continued, "For Terra Strife and Son Goku are alive." Cathreine smiled, "I TOLD YOU!" Suddenly, "Well at least someone has faith in me." Everyone turned to see a spirit image of a young child. Her clothes were slightly tattered and her ratty choppy blond hair hung down to only her ears. A grundgy looking blue bandana kept her hair out of her eyes and her mako blue eyes were filled with a lively spark. A long scar ran across her left eye and a smirk was spread across her face. "TERRA!" Cathreine screamed. "Hey Cat! Geez I save all your asses and you lose faith in me? I'm really insulted." Terra said. "But how?" Gohan asked. "Should I show em Cat?" Terra asked. Cathreine smirked, "Sure." Terra picked a small device from her belt. Bulma's eyes widened in shock. "Hey that's my…." "Space Breathing Device?" Terra finished, "Yup it sure is. I was in you work shop and I saw you throw it away when you couldn't get it to work. So I kinda worked on it. It works pretty good, too! Goku managed to get off Namek in a Ginyu space pod and I just put this on." Gohan smiled, "So all we have to do is wish that you two are brought to Earth!" Terra smiled nervously, "Well Goku and I kinda….sorta wanted to get back on our own. There's something we had to do. But we'll get back in one piece I promise!" Terra turned to Dende when she heard him snicker, "What's so funny?" Dende smirked, "What happened to your hair you look like a boy!" "Well why don't you get caught on an exploding planet and see what you look like afterwords," Terra snarled. Chichi then said, "Now she looks like how she acts."
Terra glared at Chichi, "Har Har Har. Very funny." Then Terra disappeared. The last wish was used to bring back Yamcha who chose to live with Bulma. Who was already boarding Vegeta and the nameks.
{A few months later}
The Day had come again the day to wish. Tien and Chaou- Zou had been revived and now it was time to relocate the Nameks. Dende looked up at the dragon his eyes began to water. Cathreine looked at her friend then buried her face in her father's pant leg. Just as Dende was about to wish, "WAIT!!!!" Everyone turned to see Terra whose hair had grown back to her neck and looked more girlish. All the nameks turned to Terra holding their heads in pain and glared at her. "Hehe….oops…..my bad." Terra said. Then she walked over to Piccolo and whispered something in Namekian to him. Dende eyes lit up as he listened to the conversation. Suddenly Piccolo's eyes widened, "ABSOLUTLY NOT! THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I'M ADOPTING HIM!" The look of Hope fled from Dende's face replaced by a look of heart break. "But Piccolo. His family is all gone! He has no one!" Terra argued. "That's just too damn bad! I'm not adopting him!" Piccolo growled. That's when Piccolo felt like kicking himself. Piccolo looked up to see Dende, his eyes filled with tears and his fists clenched in tight angry balls, "Dende I'm didn't mean…." But Dende just turned and ran off to the woods not wanting to let Piccolo see him cry. "Dende…." Terra whispered. Then he sad expression turned to one of anger. "You bastard," She growled. Then she turned around and punched Piccolo right across the face. After that was done she ran after Dende.
Terra looked at the young namek. Dende sat there alone crying quietly. "Dende?" she whispered sitting next to him. Dende looked up his eyes were red and puffy from crying. Terra could feel tears welling up in her eyes, "I'm so sorry Dende….I-I shouldn't of said that. I was being stupid. I…." "No. Terra you didn't do anything. Don't be sorry. You were trying to help. Piccolo he……he just doesn't like me." Dende said, "At least I'll get to say goodbye to you." Terra tried to hold back her tears but couldn't. Dende looked at her thoughtfully, "You're really here aren't you this isn't just some image is it?" Terra nodded, "Yes, Dende I'm really here." Dende hugged Terra crying into her shirt. "Thank you Terra. Thank you for being my friend." Terra hugged Dende back, "It's time." With that said Dende stood up wiped his eyes and began to walk back to the dragon.
Dende looked at the Dragon his eyes still slightly watery and began to make the wish. He was almost done when Piccolo spoke up. When Piccolo was done speaking to the Dragon in namek all the nameks were gone…….all except for Dende. Dende looked at Piccolo. Piccolo kneeled down to look Dende in the eye. "I changed my mind…….son." Dende eyes filled with tears of happiness as he threw his arms around Piccolo's neck. Piccolo picked Dende up and looked at the sky where he could see Terra smiling down at him. I cannot believe I'm doing this. He said to her through telepathy. Terra smiled, I can. And then she disappeared.
Time went by and though Cathreine had to celebrate her 6th birthday without her little sister she didn't seem mind. Because she knew if not physically Terra was with her in spirit. And every night Cathreine would watch the sunset with Gohan and Dende each of them wondering when their young friend and Goku would return to them.
