Why can't we be friends?: Chapter 3
(All characters except the ones I made up are from DBZ, in other words don't sue me. I'm just writing a fanfic here.)
Sapphire strained to see what was happening in the arena. There had seemed to be a giant explosion, then there was to much smoke to see anything. When she about to jump up on the arena, she noticed that Goku had flown off holding something in his arms. As well, she had seen his father fly up to the women, and say something to them. Then after he scooped Bulma in his arms, and flew off in the direction Goku had gone. She knew they weren't just going to continue the battle in private, since the two fighters had powered down to their usual forms.
Suddenly Sapphire's mother landed next to her.
"C'mon Sapphy, we have to go." she said simply, and flew off along with everyone else. Leaving nothing but Sapphire and Trunx to stare at each other.
"C'mon lets go!" yelled Sapphire, not believing she had let a minute pass without following immediately. Trunx, coming out of his revery as well, quickly followed after her.
"Um ladies and gentlemen, it appears that many people have somehow flown out of the stadium. That was even including out two championship fighters." managed to say the annoucer, having once again been astounded by the how many people had just shown the ability to fly.
"They were just all scared. They knew that when they fought me they would be easily crushed. So they hired helicopters to fly them away by strings!" yelled Satan, his ego having a huge boost, now knowing that he would not have to fight anybody.
"Well I guess you are correct Mr. Satan. Due to the forfeit of all fighters, the champion of this years' Budokai is our defending champion Mr. Satan!" cried the annoucer, trying to act professional again. Mr. Satan stood out of his seat and held his hands in the air. The once confused crowd was set back into cheer mode as they screamed and yelled their approval, chanting Mr. Satan's name.
Ibuki stood a few feet behind her uncle, shaking her head, not believing how much of a poser her uncle was.
Later that night everyone was standing around in Capsule Corporation. They were all sitting in a the living room, and seemed to be discussing something of great importance. The now revived Vegita spoke up.
"This is madness, I don't understand why we haven't just killed him and gotten it over with!" he cried.
"He has nothing anymore, and I think we should give him a second chance." retorted Goku, his kind exterior showing through.
"I agree with my dad, even though he has done horrible things. I think I can forgive him. He is sorta stuck here ya know, and at the current level he is at now, he couldn't possibly hurt any of us." added Gohan. Everyone nodded in agreement to this, all expect for Vegita who would rather just kill him, then befriend him.
In another part of the lab the one in question pulled against his restraints.
"What happened? The last thing I remember was that robot, and then..." he thought to himself, his mind hurting from to much thought.
"Now just calm down." said Dr. Brief walking over to him, the black cat perched on his shoulder.
"I've reconstructed your body with Dr. Gero's technology. I believe that you could probably gauge you power to be equal to that of the androids before they were destroyed." Brief stated looking down at him.
He looked down at his body the best he could while shackled to the bed. The old man was right, he looked no longer half machine, half organic anymore. He looked just as he did way back on Namek.
"Hey Frieza, are you ready to tell us what happened?" said Goku walking into the room.
"How dare you confine me! You stupid monkey!" Frieza screamed, tugging at his restraints. Goku took another step forward to him, not afraid at all. Even though Frieza talked big, he was visibly scared of the one who had defeated him so long ago.
"C'mon, we took the trouble to bring you here and restore your body. The least you could do is tell us what happened to you. I mean you looked worse then you did the last time I saw you on Namek. If you tell us, I promise to let you go." Goku continued.
Frieza considered this, and figured that if it meant that he would be set free of his restraints, then it wouln't hurt to tell the stupid monkey what had happened to him.
"Fine then. I was on my way here, after being reconstructed by my father who had found me floating in space around what was left of Namek. My plan was to kill all of your friends before you could get back from you trip from wherever you were at the time." Frieza said, a cruel smile formed on his lips, and he laughed lightly at the sound of his own words.
"But for some reason when I neared earth, something happened to my ship. It shut down mysteriously, and we were stranded in space for many years. Then yesterday our ship suddenly activated itself again, and went flying at top speed towards the earth. We crashed landed his morning. I was distraught at first, but soon realized that ultimately my plan had succeded, as I had made it to Earth." he continued, his eyes getting distant, as if he was about to recall a painful memory.
"Suddenly, after my father, my men, and myself got off the ship we were attacked. I never was able to catch a glimpse of our attacker, since it moved so incredibly fast. It quickly took the lives of all of my men, then moved onto my father. I was outraged as I watched whatever it was, rip father to pieces." he spoke, his teeth gritting as he recalled the incident.
"All alone, I used all my strength to fight the monster, but soon it defeated me. But instead of killing me, it literally ripped all of my bioelectrical implants from my body. Leaving me badly injured and dying. With my last ounce of strength, I climbed into an escape pod, hoping to find salvation wherever it took me. And that is how I ended up wherever you found me. My ship, and any means of getting back home are gone. I'm stuck on this pathetic planet!" Frieza practically yelled the last part, hating the fact that he was helpless.
"Wow that's amazing." Goku said, only seeming to have been listening half the time.
"And one more thing. Whatever that attacked me will soon come for all of you. I wouldn't be surprised if it made short work of you, and all of your monkey friends." growled Frieza as he stared at Goku with loathing.
"Is that so. I guess I'll have to tell the others that we have to start preparing again for another battle." he said, realizing that he had to take the opportunity to prepare for big battles whenever possible.
"Ok I told you my story, now release me from thes restraints at once!" Frieza yelled, as almost a command. Goku nodded, and easily broke the restraints himself, not knowing where the key was. Cell took that moment to walk in.
"I have you now!" yelled Frieza as he jumped at Goku, ready to kill his arch enemy.
"Oh hey Cell, this is Frieza." simply said Goku, gesturing his hand towards Frieza. When he turned to introduce Frieza to Cell, he noticed that he was gone.
"Hey Frieza what are you doing over there?" asked Goku, as he looked at Frieza, planted in a nearby wall. Goku's simple gesture having defeated the lizard.
"Goku, is this really the tyrant of the galaxy you were telling me about?" asked Cell, watching Frieza as he slowly got up. Having a disbelieving look on his face.
"Yep, thats him." Goku replied simply.
"Stupid Monkey. How did he get so strong. My power level seems to be ten times greater then when I came to this planet, but yet I can not even scratch him. With no way to get home, and the inability to defeat these stupid monkeys, I guess I will have to feign a truce with them, until I can grow stronger." Frieza thought to himself, watching the conversation between Goku and Cell.
"Monk....I mean Goku. I humbly ask to be able to live here on your planet. For saving my life, I promise I will never cross you again." Frieza said, cursing himself with every word. He had to muster up all his strength to say this, and even bow while doing so.
"See, I knew you weren't all bad." remarked Goku, as he fully trusted Frieza to be one of the good guys now. Cell just watched as Goku was obviously being tricked, but feeling absolutely not threat from this white lizard, he had no reason to go against his wishes.
Suddenly a knock was heard on the lab door.
"Oh Goku, you friend Krillin is here to see you." came Bulma's mother's voice as she knocked on the door.
"Wow Krillin? I havent' seen him in ages." said Goku outloud, as he totally forgot about Frieza and moved back into the living room. Leaving Cell and Frieza to stare at each other.
"Oh my gosh! What did you do to your head!" yelled Goku as he started at Krillin, now with a full set of black hair. Krillin looked sorta embarrased, but android 18, who was standing next to him, gave him a reassuring smile.
"Well in the past four years I sorta took hunting dragonballs for a hobby. So I was basically able to have two wishes granted. I used one wish to grow hair. And I used the other wish...to....to..." Krillin started.
"He used the other wish to take the bomb out of me." said 18, finishing his sentence.
"Oh yeah and one more thing...." Krillin started up again, the started to trail off.
"What is it?" asked Goku, watching Krillin nervously fidget as everyone had their eyes on him.
"We got married." said 18 with a smile, holding up her hand with a ring on it.
"Married?! No way!" almost everyone seemed to cry in unison.
"Yes way. Do you think I would lie about something like this!" yelled 18 getting an attitude.
"She's right, and not only that, we're expecting." Krillin said, still fidgeting.
"Expecting what?" Goku asked, not getting it.
"They're going to have a baby!" yelled Chichi as she was disgusted by her own husband's lack of brain cells.
"Yeah, and I thought it would be best if I started hanging with all you guys again." Krillin said, his fidgeting starting to subside.
"We would love to have you." stated Bulma with a smile, always being the sociable type.
"Really? Oh thank you all very much!" said 18 happily, their problem of finding a home quickly having been solved. Suddenly at that moment Cell walked out of the room, followed by you know who.
"Hey Cell how are you....do.....ing....." Krilin started to say, when suddenly a look of horror clutched his soul.
"Oh my gosh guys! Its Frieza! We gotta get out of here!" Krillin yelled, screaming his head off, as he ran around the room. Everyone watching him like he had a screw loose or something. His wife especially embarresed.
Frieza was very pleased to find that at least one person was still scared of him
"Yeah Frieza will be staying with us for a little while. He can stay with you guys right?" asked Goku as he turned to Bulma.
"Of course. The more the merrier." Bulma said with a smile, sipping some tea. Krillin looked at them all like they had grown an extra head.
"Are you crazy! This is Frieza we're talking about. Ya know, the most horrible tyrant in the universe. And you're just going to let him stay here like nothing every happened!" yelled Krillin outraged that he would not only have to deal with Frieza being allowed to live, but also having to live under the same roof with him.
"Aww don't worry Krillin. I bet he's a big pussy cat when you get to know him." said Bulma with a grin, making everyone sweat drop, even Frieza. Frieza decided this was a chance to further add to his deception.
"If you would accept my apologies from my past discretions. I would be forever in you debt if you would allow me live here." said Frieza, having a weird gargeling sound in his words, having to force them out of his mouth.
Suddenly Frieza felt something curl up his leg, and before he knew what was happening he was lying on back, staring at the ceiling. Standing over him was Sapphire, her tail twitching.
"Oh I think I'm going to like him." she said smirking. Everyon in the room had to muffle laughs as they watched Frieza trying to scramble back to his feet. Trunx harumphed, seeming jealous for some reason.
"Hey guys where's Vegita?" asked Goku as he looked around, to see him not present.
"Oh after he found out that we weren't killing him, he just got up and left." Bulma said, seeming sorta angry at this fact.
"So Goku, are you really going to let Frieza live?" asked Krillin, as he turned towards Goku.
"Of course. As I said before, everyone deserves a second chance, even Frieza. And I really think that he has changed." said Goku with a grin on his face, as he patted Frieza on the shoulder. Frieza visibly cringed as Goku touched him.
"You just wait you stupid monkey, you will all soon see the wrath of Frieza." he thought to himself, as he continued to stare at all the people around him. Trying to think of plot that he could use to destroy them all.
Goku totally oblivious to this suddenly got serious.
"There is one thing though. If what Frieza said is true, then we are all in terrible danger....."
